Knitting with ETERNITY

ETERNITY – a review

Colourful with Relaxed Drape by LANGYARNS

Some yarns sing; others flow quietly like watercolours — and ETERNITY by LANGYARNS is firmly in the latter camp. This 100% cotton chainette yarn paints fabric in gentle tones that fade and shift effortlessly from stitch to stitch. It’s colour artistry without the effort, creating calm, wearable pieces that feel as soothing to make as they are to wear.

First Impressions

When I first unrolled a ball of ETERNITY, I was struck by its tranquil palette — the shades move seamlessly through misty gradients rather than abrupt stripes. The chainette structure gives it an airy body that feels soft yet structured, creating a fabric that holds its shape while draping beautifully.

Knitting Experience

ETERNITY glides smoothly across the needles, with just enough texture from its chainette construction to keep the stitches lively. Each row reveals subtle changes in colour, unfolding like brushstrokes on canvas. Because the shades flow naturally, you can let the yarn lead — stocking stitch, garter, or simple lace all show off its quiet complexity.

For larger pieces, alternating two balls now and then ensures a balanced colour transition, but even without that, the result feels effortlessly cohesive. It’s the kind of project that rewards relaxation — a perfect yarn for slow, mindful making.

Wearing and Performance

The finished fabric is light and breathable with a relaxed, fluid drape. It’s perfect for transitional layers — summer cardigans, airy tops, or wraps that feel comfortable against the skin. The cotton fibres keep it cool and fresh, while the chainette structure adds just enough elasticity to prevent sagging.

After washing, the yarn settles beautifully, softening further while maintaining its colour flow and integrity. It’s a yarn that improves with gentle wear — calm, tactile, and quietly confident.

Final Verdict

ETERNITY by LANGYARNS is an exercise in calm creativity — a yarn that captures the beauty of movement, breath, and time. Its flowing colour gradients and relaxed drape make every stitch feel like part of a larger painting, one that you can wear season after season.

Elegant, peaceful, and full of quiet dimension — ETERNITY truly lives up to its name.
