Flying North provides simple texture stitch to add to your favorite sock pattern. The sock is worked from the toe, up to the cuff with a short-row or afterthought heel (specific heel instructions are not provided, see heel suggestions in pattern). The texture is worked on the top of the foot until the heel and then worked around the cuff and completed with a 1x1 ribbing and stretchy bind off. The pattern is written using the Magic Loop method but can be easily adjusted to using double pointed needles or other sock knitting methods.
