Laine is back with their latest collection of dreamy knits – Observations. Inspired by long winter walks and finding the surprising and wonderful in familiar spaces, Observations is a collection meant for slow, meditative knitting, and letting yourself enjoy the process.Taking note of the landscape around her home in Sweden, Lotta H. Löthgren has developed nine lasting patterns, along with essays about her walks and life. Grab your copy here.
