ABSTRACT:
Stocking mending apparatus including a base portion; a stocking form upstandingly centered on the base portion having an ovoid head portion over which the toe or heel of a stocking may be stretched; a housing cover hingably engaging the base portion, the cover including a heat conducting recessed cap operable to mate with the ovoid head; and means for heating the recessed cap. In use, a pre-molded ovoid-shaped fabric cap having an undersurface including heat bonding adhesive is placed over the stretched toe or heel of the stocking on the ovoid head portion of the stocking form. The hinged cover is then lowered onto the stocking form with the heat conductive recessed cap of the cover compressing the fabric cap. Heat applied to the recessed cap and thereby to the fabric cap causes the fabric cap to be bound with the fabric of the stocking thereby mending the stocking. The apparatus may also include a heat-on off indicator and temperature control.
