    Laine 19, Kaolinite, celebrates the meditative nature of crafts. The beautiful, serene photos were taken in a ceramics studio, and the patterns offer a relaxing break from the everyday.

    Here at Mother of Purl we're excited because Jennifer Brou, a local Maine designer, has designed the gorgeous vest on the front cover of this issue of Laine!  Jennifer lives near us in southern Maine and is inspired by the lonely landscapes by the sea, shadows and all green things growing.  Her design process focuses on ornate texture and colorwork; fluidly moving between drawing, photography and knitting.  Her hope is to help knitters stay inspired and challenged.

    Designers featured in this issue: Alexandra Atepaeva, Jennifer Brou, Maxim Cyr, Ronja Hakalehto, Helga Isager, Pauliina Leisti, Agata Mackiewicz, Yukie Onodera, Marie Régnier, Jacqueline van Dillen and Veera Välimäki.   In the articles we meet the Japanese embroidery artist Tomomi Mimura and the Mayan Kaqchikel fibre artist and writer Sari Monroy. We explore the work of an American sheep shearer and find out what kind of skills knitters should practise to increase their brain health.

    Success! Feel free to continue shopping or head to your cart .
