ABSTRACT:
A hand-mounted accessory for opening a twist-off cap bottle, the accessory being comprised of an elongated flexible web and flexible loops off the web near its opposite ends. The flexible loops are sized to fit over and be secured onto the user's thumb and index finger in the region between the first and second knuckles, the web ending near the second knuckles and between the loops then lying closely proximate and substantially aligned with the hand web portion between the thumb and index finger. The web is further sized to wrap more than half-way around and overlie the side edges of the twist-off cap even if the web is not exactly aligned parallel to the side edges. As hand-mounted, the accessory web automatically will be positioned against the cap side edges as the user's thumb and index finger close over the cap side edges during hand manipulation needed to twist the cap off the bottle.
