ABSTRACT:
A sock applying device includes a flexible sheet generally shaped as a shovel blade. A plurality of fasteners are along one end of the sheet remote from the tip. The sheet includes registry notches to limit the extent to which a sock would be pulled over the sheet. Pull cords are provided along the same edge as the fasteners. In use, the sheet would be bent between the user's thighs with the tip uppermost. The sock would be pulled over the tip until the open end of the sock is in the registry notches. The fasteners would then be applied to the sock and the device would be placed on the floor so that the user could insert the user's foot into the device and pull the sock onto the foot by an upward pull of the cords.
