    Laine Magazine - Issue 15

    Cover
    • Laine's Autumn issue, Laine 15, comes with a whole new look!

      PLEASE NOTE: To celebrate the new look, we have two different cover versions available: one in full-colour and a very limited black & white version!

      Taking a step into a more modern, dynamic direction by celebrating knitwear and the world of fibre in a fresh way, together with the new look, Laire are excited to introduce new, regular articles, such as Jeanette Sloan Talks Fibre.

      Of course, there are also things that won’t change: gorgeous knitwear patterns, beautiful high-quality photography and the size of the magazine, all elements that Laine is known for.

      The new look was created by Kyiv-born Marina Veziko, one of Finland’s leading designers and the Graphic Designer of the Year 2021. While the war continues in Ukraine, we are prouder than ever to support Ukraine and its people.

      Renewed issues are always especially interesting bestsellers. Based on the reactions so far, the level of excitement on this issue is overwhelming and people are curious to see the renewed magazine. This will be a new era for Laine and Laine Publishing as well!

      As always, we will host an Instagram Live for Yarn Suggestions and top recommendations for each pattern (and see our suggestions on the "Yarn Suggestions" tab)!
