Fluxion socks have an attractive cable pattern on the instep designed to be engaging yet simple enough to use with all of those lovely, uniquely dyed skeins of yarn. They are knit toe up with my favorite shadow wrap short row heel. Designed as an ankle sock, they could easily be extended to your preferred height. The pattern is written using the magic loop method but can be worked using any small circumference method.
