The Widdershins sock pattern on Knitty.com by Brooke Chenoweth Creel is a popular toe up sock pattern with a classic round heel.

Brooke writes "I liked the idea of toe-up socks, especially when I'm not sure how much yarn I have available, but prefer the extra cushion of the standard top-down sock's slipped stitch heel flap".
