Seronda
Seronda is a raglan-sleeve jumper with a cable panel along the front. It’s knitted in the round, from the top down. It has two options for the neck, a slightly oversized fit and straight sleeves with long narrow cuffs at the end. The pattern has 9 sizes, for bust sizes from 67 to 157 cm / 27 to 63 inches.
Seronda is the name given to the autumn months and the autumn harvest in the dialect of the northern Spanish region where I was born.
If you like the Seronda jumper, you may be interested in the matching Seronda hat and Seronda cowl.

- 5 mm (US8) circular needles for the body and sleeves (adjust if necessary to achieve gauge – see below).

- 3 markers in different colours (A-C) for the raglan increases, plus a special marker for BOR. Optional: 4 other different markers if you want to separate the cable patterns.
