Laine is an international knit and lifestyle magazine. Issue 30 (Autumn 2026): Laine 30, Layers, features a beautiful collection of knits to wrap yourself in as the weather starts to cool. Its 15 patterns explore lovely textures, delicate lace, plump cables, as well as stunning colourwork. The photos were taken in a rustic, historical mill setting, where layers of past decades were beautifully present — evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing. The crisp sunlight added a luminous finishing touch to the photos. Designers featured in this issue: Maria Bach Jensen, Amy Baldwin, Aneta Bleyer, Meghan Haughton, Heli Hottinen-Puukko, Anniina Juuti, Sara Ottosson, Veta Romanenkova, Inese Sang, Megumi Shinagawa, Anna Syrjänen, Natascha Tulloch, Yiğitcan Vatansever and Karin & Stina Weststrand. Issue 29, Summer 2026: Laine 29, Damson, includes 15 beautiful knits well-suited for warmer seasons. The patterns are worked in a variety of techniques, from intricate cables and modern openwork to cosy brioche and meditative stockinette stitch. The photos capture the spirit of lazy, lingering summer days in the garden. The photoshoot drew inspiration from the movie The Hours, particularly the effortless style of Clarissa Vaughan, portrayed by Meryl Streep, as well the beauty of the English countryside, which serves as the backdrop for one of the film’s storylines. Designers featured in this issue: Pauline Fanguin, Joanna Filip, Saysha Greene, Kaori Katsurada, Marija Korać, Sarianna Lehtonen, Sara Markkula, Paula Narkiniemi, Sari Nordlund, Anne-Sophie Nørby Velling, Serena Qiu, Camille Romano and Lis Smith.

Issue 28 (Spring 2026): Our beautiful spring issue, Laine 28, Open Water, takes you on a boat trip to the sunny Baltic Sea: to sun-warmed cliffs, rocky beaches and balmy pine forests.
