Laine 30, Layers, features a beautiful collection of knits to wrap yourself in as the weather starts to cool. The collection includes lovely textures, delicate lace, plump cables, as well as stunning colourwork. The photos were taken in a rustic, historical mill setting, where layers of past decades were beautifully present — evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing. The crisp sunlight added a beautiful finishing touch to the photos.
