CALLUNA
CALLUNA
Calluna is a relaxed-fit pullover worked from the top down with a wide ribbed pattern. The pullover is worked in the round, then split to work the hems back and forth. Cuffs and hems feature a small welt, and the side splits are edged with ribbing. The sleeves are long and worked in the round. The marled stripes are created with various combinations of smooth fingering weight yarn and two strands of mohair silk blend, repeated throughout the body and sleeves.
Calluna was originally published in Pom Pom Quarterly’s Issue 47. The theme for this collection was monochrome, where “designers played with depth, saturation, and brightness; maximum impact with minimum contrast”, wrote Pom Pom in the magazine’s opening statement. Fiona Alice thought back to her early classes at art school, revisiting colour theory and the colour wheel for Calluna.
