One of our most beloved patterns, Lento, designed by our editor-in-chief Jonna Helin and released in Laine Magazine Issue 11, is now available as a digital download.

Lento is knitted from the top down in the round with raglan increases. The yoke is shaped with short rows. After the yoke is completed, the work is divided into the body and sleeves, which are then knitted separately in the round.

“It always starts with the yarn: something in it, be it colour or texture, that evokes an idea in my mind which I shape into a pattern – most often a sweater. Lento reminds me of homey landscapes: pine forests, cottage docks and sand roads.”
