Laine Nordic Knits 2: This is a pre-order product and will be published on October 8th! Online orders will be posted to arrive for this date.
Laine Nordic Knits 2 brings together 15 timeless knitting patterns inspired by the Nordic approach to knitwear: practical, considered and designed for colder climates, without compromising on beauty.
The collection features designs from Nordic yarn brands and designers based in the Nordic countries, all knitted using Nordic yarns. The patterns reflect a quiet, understated aesthetic, with thoughtful construction and wearable designs that are intended to be enjoyed for years to come.
As with Laine's other publications, the magazine itself is beautifully produced, with atmospheric photography and considered styling. The photographs for this issue were taken at Villa Ervi, a striking Finnish house designed by architect Aarne Ervi.
Designers and brands featured include:
- Fiona Alice
- Helga Isager
- Anna Johanna
- Védís Jónsdóttir / Ístex
- Meiju Kallio
- Henna Ketonen
- Knitting for Olive
- Pauliina Leisti
- Sari Nordlund
- Sara Ottosson
- Saara Toikka / Novita
The issue also introduces Norwegian knitwear designer Ane Fiskum Sunde, known as Novemberknits, who balances her knitting work with a career in music.
Alongside the patterns and designers, Laine visits Gotlands Spinneri, a small spinning mill on the Swedish island of Gotland, run by two dedicated women keeping the craft of local wool spinning alive.
Laine Nordic Knits 2 is both a beautiful publication to keep on the coffee table and a practical source of knitting patterns to return to throughout the colder months.
