The Art of the Sea — Laine Publishing

Step into the world of the Moomins through the gentle rhythm of knitting. The Art of the Sea is Laine’s beautiful new hardback book inspired by the beloved characters created by Tove Jansson — a celebration of curiosity, courage and the quiet magic of nature.

With 23 patterns from 18 international designers, this collection captures the atmosphere of Moominvalley in stitch form. Think cosy sweaters with a hint of wanderlust, accessories that echo the northern shoreline and motifs that feel both nostalgic and wonderfully wearable. There’s a touch of Moominmamma’s warmth in every design, the spark of Little My, a whisper of Snufkin’s independence and just a breath of sea air throughout.

Inside you’ll find:

• 272 pages of inspiration

• 23 knitting patterns: 15 sweaters, 1 cardigan, 3 vests/slipovers, 1 poncho, 2 scarves and a pair of socks

• Designs from 18 talented makers around the world

• A beautifully produced hardback to treasure

A lovely addition to any knitter’s bookshelf — whether you’re a lifelong Moomin fan or simply drawn to thoughtful, nature-inspired knitwear.
