Anyway the question arose what to do now?
.. Shall I look for something similar, like this? Or this? and knit the border from a different shade? Shall I just give up and look for an other pattern? Then which one?
Fiber merino and silk blend. Spun on this little spindle... I ordered an other one from the seller and while conversing about living in Hungary, unaviability of things, shipping prices and other things I mentioned that i like this one too and maybe an other time I will order it too. Then the box arrived and I opened, unpacking the one I ordered and there was some extra fiber along. Christopher wanted to open that one to and I said, "calm down honey, that is just fiber, we'll open it later" "no mama, there is something inside, look" and just as I was starting to yell at him that "I said leave it alone" this lovely little spindle fell out... It is so cute and I loved spinning with it. Plying was done with the big star shaped spindle also bought from the same seller.
ETA: Problem solved. I found the exact same fiber at ETSY of all places. I was surprised because this was a commercially mixed and dyed fiber and I didn't expect it to turn up there, but it did. I got the amount I needed and shipping costed me 7 dollars (with some other fiber in the package). Yayyy, I can't wait for it to get here.

Hello Anett!
I hope all is well with you guys in Hungary. My niece returned to Seattle a two weeks ago. She had a wonderful time in your city and country. She was able to see a great deal of Europe as well while she was abroad.
At our last guild meeting, we had a new member. He designs crochet patterns and his partner spins yarn. The sell their stuff on Etsy as well http://www.etsy.com/shop/shibaguyz
I have not bought their yarn yet but thought I would refer you to a source from here in Seattle.
Say hi to everyone for me.
