Our lovely spring issue, Laine 24, Brushstrokes, is full of creative energy and soft, joyous spring colours! The photos were taken in an artist’s studio, in all its vibrant, inspiring chaos, and a lush, green park with old deciduous trees and quiet pathways. The knits are delicate, feminine and refined, featuring beautiful textures and interesting techniques.
