Calluna is the ultimate first sweater project—simple, approachable, and designed to set you up for success.

No short rows, no double yarns, no complicated stitch patterns. Just clear, beginner-friendly instructions to guide you every step of the way.

While the fingering weight yarn and smaller needles might feel a little daunting, don’t let that hold you back. The process is simple, and the result is a lightweight raglan sweater you’ll wear year-round.

With a modern silhouette, close-fitting body, and extra-long sleeves, this seamless top-down sweater is as flattering as it is practical.

Whether you’re knitting your first sweater or adding to your wardrobe staples, Calluna is an everyday essential you’ll reach for again and again.
