The list of third party countries, that is countries outside of the EU/Schengen area, that can enter Sweden has been updated. From November 5th and November 5th the new lists of third party countries go into effect.
Unfortunately I could not find that particular page translated into English, but go to this English page (link) and then click on the approved country link under Entry from a non-EEA* country. Then scroll down and the list of approved countries is under the headline Bilaga 1 /Träder i kraft I:2021-11-08/ These countries can enter Sweden without vaccine, but you need to provide a negative covid test which is not older than 72 hours.
The countries under the headline Bilaga 2 /Träder i kraft I:2021-11-05/ need to provide proof of vaccination.

@Kashlee Kucheran, Per the article above - you can only travel to Sweden if you are a resident in Sweden NOT based on citizenship - you can have multiple citizenships one being Swedish but you do NOT reside in Sweden therefore you cannot travel there - it is for people going "home" not for Swedish Citizens to just visit
Did I get that wrong? if so please point me to the correct information please

To my knowledge, any Swedish citizen can return to Sweden at any time. Yes, there may be restrictions like a 48 hour pCR test needed depending on where you are coming from

I am a swedish citizen living in California. My two kids are also swedish citizens with swedish passports, however, my sons swedish passport just expired. It is not possible to renew his swedish passport in CA (you have to fly to NY or Washington DC to renew). Will he not be allowed to enter Sweden on his US passport if he travels with me and my daughter who both have active swedish passports? My son is 12.
