Yarn: I think its Dazzle HT Sock Yarn from the Natural Dye Studio, in colourway Old Gold...  better known to me as a mini-skein of fun birthday yarn, sent to me by my good friend Claudia! :)

Needles: 3.5 mm / 4 US

Gauge: 6 stitches and 9 rows per inch

Stitch Pattern: Brocade Chevron

Source: BW2, p. 148.

Comments: I call this one the 'Charlie Brown Textured Stripe' because it can't help but make me think of Charlie Brown's yellow shirt.  I'm so wanting to make a little kiddie's top with one of these around the middle! :)  It would have to be a teeny top though - or at least knit in a chunky yarn - or else it wouldn't be the right proportion to the rest of the top...  :)
