Inspired by the beloved science fiction series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Deep Thought Socks pay homage to the iconic supercomputer, Deep Thought, which was tasked with finding the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

The design features a cuff with 42 rounds—because truly, what else could it be? This creative choice not only nods to the source material but also allows knitters to repeat the pattern for an extended leg length, making these socks as practical as they are playful.
