I have a problem...

This is the peacock sock from Maggie's Rags...
I like the pattern. I would like to make it in peacock colors...
It's a tiny square stitch pattern, which would do fine as anything... but I don't know how it's done... And it's a copyrighted pattern too, and I have no possibility to get the pattern :-(

There are so many fascinating knitting stitch patterns out there... it's amazing that this variety has been created with k's, p's, yo's and k2tog's...

You can for example look at these stitches

Yes, it says "dishcloth index", but they are actually stitches. Dishcloth 21; Feather Lace, looks like this sock...

well, they do list web retailers for the pattern, so ordering it shouldn't be that great a problem!

and: for peacock colors, I think the slowly changing repeats on Zitron Trekking XXL would look nice.

Yes... 51 or 55... *drool* And it's wool strengthened with nylon, so it would be perfect for socks. :-)
Now I just need to figure out where to get it. ;-)
