Pure 100% Virgin Wool - INFINITY

INFINITY, extrafine merino with freely changing colour

With INFINITY by Lang Yarns, the pleasure of discovery begins in the first few rows. This single-ply yarn is made from extrafine merino wool and develops its colours without a regular pattern repeat. The same shades return, but their order, spacing and intensity keep changing. As the fabric grows, this deliberately irregular movement gives each project an individual visual identity.

Colour without a predictable repeat

The distinctive colour construction of INFINITY has room to reveal itself across larger knitted surfaces. On a sweater, cardigan, another garment or a blanket, the shifting shades can travel through the fabric at their own pace. The yarn is also suitable for accessories, particularly when colour is intended to be the central decorative feature. Rather than producing programmed stripes or an identical sequence, it creates an evolving arrangement that remains engaging from one row to the next.

Simple stitch patterns allow the colour movement to take centre stage. If you are planning cables, textured stitches or more pronounced surface detail, begin with a generous swatch. This will show how the stitch definition interacts with the changing shades and help you decide whether the chosen pattern supports the intended result. Swatching is especially useful with INFINITY because the colours are designed to return in different sequences and at varying levels of intensity.

The soft handle of extrafine merino

INFINITY is made from 100% virgin wool in an extrafine merino quality and has a Superwash treatment. Its soft handle makes it an appealing option for garments and accessories worn closer to the body. Sensitivity to wool is personal, so knit a swatch and hold it against your neck before committing to a scarf, high neckline or sweater. This simple test lets you assess your own comfort with the fibre before beginning a larger project.

The single-ply construction gives the yarn its characteristic form and carries the changing colours visibly through the knitted fabric. The decorative effect comes directly from the yarn, without requiring constant ball changes to introduce a new shade. In a substantial project, the individual progression of each ball can become part of the design. An exact repeat is not the aim of INFINITY, and that freedom is central to its creative character.

Personal projects for autumn and winter

With 260 metres per 100 grams and a recommended needle size of 4.5 to 5 mm, INFINITY is suited to autumn and winter knitting. Garments, blankets and accessories are all recommended uses. A sweater allows the colours to move across the front, back and sleeves, while a blanket provides a generous surface on which the irregular intervals, changing order and varying intensity can become fully visible.

The value of a yarn can also be measured by what it brings to the time invested in every stitch. Extrafine merino, a mulesing free specification and the carefully designed absence of a regular colour repeat all give the finished work a clear material and visual identity. Choosing a quality fibre supports the aim of making a project whose handle, appearance and individual character feel worthy of the pattern and the hours devoted to it.

Swatching and care

The stated gauge is 19 stitches and 28 rows over 10 cm. A swatch allows you to compare your tension with the pattern measurements while also observing how the colours and stitch pattern behave together. For care, use a detergent intended for wool and do not use fabric softener. The Superwash treatment makes care more manageable, but it does not replace this fibre-appropriate washing recommendation.

Choose INFINITY from Torsades to give your next garment, accessory or blanket a soft handle and an expressive colour rhythm that will not follow a fixed repeat.
