Laine Magazine - Issue 28

Laine Magazine Issue 27 – Open Water

We’re delighted to welcome the spring edition of Laine Magazine — a fresh, uplifting issue that captures the feeling of lighter days and new beginnings.

The Spring 2026 issue, Open Water, reflects the quiet shift between seasons: longer daylight, returning warmth and the sense of possibility that comes with spring. Across 164 beautifully curated pages, you’ll find 15 thoughtfully designed knitting patterns that balance comfort with elegance.  Perfect for transitional layering and mindful making.

This issue brings together modern silhouettes, soft textures and versatile garments, from relaxed sweaters and cardigans to breezy T-shirts, tops and shawls, alongside a cosy vest and a joyful pair of socks.

Inside, you’ll also find Laine’s much-loved Favourite section, filled with inspiring stories, clever tools, thoughtful reviews and creative ideas. This time, we visit the Stephen & Penelope yarn shop in Amsterdam and explore spring style inspiration with Aleksandra Solowianiuk of Vert & Rose.
