King Cole Eternity DK brings together extra fine merino, alpaca, and a touch of polyamide to give your everyday DK knitting a noticeably softer, more considered feel. Whether you’re casting on a fitted cable-knit cardigan or a delicate lace shawl, this yarn rewards your time with clean stitch definition and a gentle halo that adds quiet depth to your work.
The 70% extra fine merino delivers that characteristic smoothness and springiness that makes tension easy to maintain across a whole project, while 12% alpaca lends a subtle warmth and a slightly silky drape. The 18% polyamide addition strengthens the blend without stiffening it, so the fabric you create stays light and fluid — ideal for a fitted tee or a relaxed women’s jumper.
Eternity DK is offered in a thoughtful palette of tonal and semi-solid shades that let the natural character of the merino and alpaca fibres show through. Stitch patterns — whether simple stocking stitch or something more textured — read clearly in the finished fabric, so your work looks as considered as it feels.
The polyamide content means this blend holds its shape through gentle machine washing, making it a sensible choice for a baby blanket or a cardigan you want to wear regularly without fuss. At 180m per 50g ball, you get a generous yardage for a DK weight, helping your stash go further across larger projects.
