knitting pattern Ederlezi sockpattern lace and colorwork with a star toe

Ederlezi is the name of the spring festival of the Balkan Roma. The song Ederlezi by Dikanda
inspired me to write this pattern.
The sockpattern symbolize the long swinging colourful skirts of the Roma women. The skirts are made of
different layers of fabric.
