Laine autumn issue 26, Crossing Paths, takes you to the bohemian Kallio district of Helsinki, Finland.

We stroll the streets of this unique, creative neighbourhood, stop by a local café, and pick up flowers from the market.

The issue includes twelve beautiful knits to complete your autumn outfits, featuring luscious cables, fascinating textures, and innovative stripe patterns — not to mention some meditative stockinette stitch and simple colourwork.

This issue truly offers something for everyone!
