LAINE Nº 17 - SUMMER 2023

The Magazine Laine Nº 17 - Summer 2023 presents a lovely and relaxed summer ideas collection, with subtly vintage and cheerful touch projects.

The magazine features 11 knit patterns to create summer garments, including sweaters, cardigans, a top, shawls and a pair of socks. Patterns come with graphics and written instructions to make the weaving process easier.

Only available in English.

In addition, the magazine includes an interview with French designer and author Cinthia Vallet, who shares her love of design and the joy that toy making can bring to adult weavers. You will also find an article about an Australian sheep farmer who grazes a herd of Finnsheep 15,000 kilometres from his homeland, providing an interesting perspective on sheep farming.

Jeanette Sloan’s Fiber Talk is a regular article in the magazine, in which Jeanette chats with people passionate about the world of weaving. In this issue, Jeanette reunites with Lissy and Rudi Robinson-Cole, a couple who do crochet inspired by their Maori heritage.

Also included is the regular article Five Ways by Päivi Kankaro, who collects expert advice on how to design your own knitwear patterns. The magazine also presents Where I Knit, a section that shows people knitting at their favorite place. In this issue, we meet a Finnish weaver who likes to weave in nature.

As a bonus, find seasonal recipes to inspire your summer cuisine, such as tomato confit, lemon mocktail and almond pavlovas, plus book reviews.
