Long Haul Flight

Discover the Long Haul Flight Sock Pattern, a beautifully designed adult sock knitting pattern featuring a stunning central cable panel. Flanked on either side by an engaging texture stitch pattern, these socks are perfect for knitters looking to expand their skills while creating a stylish and cozy accessory. This versatile pattern is knitted cuff-down and includes a classic heel flap and gusset construction, ensuring a comfortable fit and easy wear.

The Long Haul Flight pattern is designed for maximum convenience, featuring both charted and written instructions to cater to all knitting preferences. With a simple-to-memorize 6-row repeat, this pattern allows you to enjoy the rhythmic motion of knitting while producing intricate and beautiful socks that are sure to impress. Whether you’re making them for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, these socks are an excellent choice for any occasion.

The sample socks showcased in the accompanying photographs are the larger size, knitted using a high-quality fingering weight yarn composed of 75% merino and 25% nylon from Devon Sun Yarns. To achieve the best results, we recommend using a semi-solid or speckled yarn for this design, as it enhances the cable and texture details beautifully.

For your knitting convenience, the Long Haul Flight pattern can be worked using the magic loop method, which is my preferred technique for knitting in the round. However, if you have a different preference, you can also use double-pointed needles (dpns) or a mini circular needle to create these stunning socks. No matter your knitting method, you’ll find this pattern to be enjoyable and rewarding, perfect for both beginner and experienced knitters alike.
