Laine Magazine Issue 25

A beautiful summer issue, Laine 25, Stillness, takes you to an old summer cabin by the lakeside — nestled in the woods, surrounded by birch and pine trees, fresh waters and blue skies. The photos capture the quiet beauty and serenity of Finnish summer. This issue includes twelve light and relaxed summer garments and accessories, perfect for the warmer months. The knits are worked in a variety of yarns suited for summer, and they feature many interesting techniques and textures.

The summer issue features many yarns and fibres perfect for the warmer months! Maria Gomes’ Ice Cream cardigan is worked in a delicate blend of baby alpaca, silk and Merino, creating a lightweight fabric. Audrey Borrego’s Bleuet shawl is made with pure hemp yarn; the drape and softness it grows into make it a great choice for summer. Sus Gepard’s Sea tee is knitted with a textured yarn spun in a blend of linen and cotton, creating an airy feel. Looking for a layering piece that you can throw over any summer outfit? We have a few lovely cardigans for you, such as Kaori Katsurada’s cute, frilled Diǎnxīn, or Marie-Ève Wedge’s versatile and relaxed Orma! Or maybe try Linda Lencovic’s Lumino sweater: an oversized jumper that combines two yarns in contrasting shades? This issue also features three beautiful shawls that will keep you warm in the cooler summer nights! For the perfect summer top, we recommend Antonio Jesús Castillo Urquízar’s Francisca, a boxy top featuring a simple cable and lace pattern, or Marina Storm’s Kallos, an elegant top worked in a combination of stockinette stitch and intricate lace. Both stunning and unique in their own way!
