A calm weekend away in nature... bundled up in cosy knits with plenty of projects to work on... wandering through the woods until the first raindrops fall, then scurrying back to the cabin to knit a few rows by the fire... In classic fashion, the latest issue of Laine Magazine "Weekend Getaway" is stirring our imagination and taking us to beautiful places
Laine 18 includes eleven knitting patterns - five sweaters, two cardigans, one slipover, one shawl, one hat and one pair of mittens - alongside articles and interviews including a chat with the American knitwear designer and fashion historian Sydney Crabaugh, who specialises in vintage knits. Gudrun Johnston and Mary Jane Mucklestone take us on an exciting tour to Shetland, and Jeanette Sloan introduces us to Tanis “Akutuq” Simpson, whose company produces yarn from qiviut: a fibre that comes from the undercoat of the muskox!
