Jonna Helin

Jonna Helin is the creative soul behind Laine Publishing, with 25 years of experience in the publishing industry. Raised in a family of crafters, she grew up listening to the rhythmic clicking of knitting needles, the soundtrack of her life. For Jonna, knitting is a sanctuary, offering peace and calm from the demands of daily life and soothing her busy mind.

She feels most at home in her cabin nestled in a remote Finnish forest, where the stars shine brightly against the dark winter sky, bringing light to the coldest nights. Yet she also loves getting lost in the bustling streets of London, Paris, New York and Tokyo. These contrasts blend harmoniously in her designs, which embody both the natural beauty of the wilderness and the vibrance of urban life.

A firm believer in the power of honesty and simplicity, Jonna creates knits that endure through time and style — pieces that are as easy to knit as they are to wear.

In Cultivate, Dee Hardwicke and Jonna come together to celebrate the beauty of everyday simplicity through the art of knitting.
