Laine Nordic Knits 2
Laine Nordic Knits 2 features 15 patterns that are practical, thoughtful, timeless, and well-suited to colder climates, without compromising on beauty. The patterns come from Nordic yarn brands or designers based in Nordic countries and are worked in Nordic yarns. Their understated Nordic aesthetics are also reflected in the magazine itself: beautifully photographed and thoughtfully laid out, a publication you will want to keep on your coffee table, but one that you will also get plenty of use from! The photos were taken at the stunning Villa Ervi, designed by the Finnish architect Aarne Ervi.
The designers included in this issue are Fiona Alice, Helga Isager, Anna Johanna, Védís Jónsdóttir / Ístex, Meiju Kallio, Henna Ketonen, Knitting for Olive, Pauliina Leisti, Sari Nordlund, Sara Ottosson and Saara Toikka / Novita.
Laine also met Norwegian knitwear designer Ane Fiskum Sunde, better known as Novemberknits, who spends her time knitting and pursuing her musical career, and visited Gotlands Spinneri, a small spinning mill run by two devoted women on the Swedish island of Gotland.
