Phone sock method

Abstract

A phone sock for carrying a cellular phone on a person's arm or leg including a generally cylindrical tube body constructed of a flexible elastic fabric material and having opposite ends and a pair of generally cylindrical cuff-bands, one mounted on each of the opposite ends of the sock body in generally concentric alignment with the tube body, the cuff-bands constructed of a flexible elastic fabric material and having a diameter less than the diameter of the tube body. Finally, an antenna hole is formed in the tube body generally adjacent one end of the tube body operative to allow the antenna of a cellular telephone to protrude therethrough.

1 . A method of carrying a cellular phone on an arm or leg of a wearer comprising the steps: 
 providing a phone sock including a generally cylindrical tube body constructed of a flexible elastic material, said tube body having opposite ends, a pair of generally cylindrical cuff-bands, one mounted on each of said opposite ends of said tube body in generally concentric alignment with said tube body, said cuff-bands constructed of a flexible elastic material and having a diameter less than the diameter of said tube body and an antenna hole formed in said tube body generally adjacent one end of said tube body operative to allow the antenna of a cellular telephone to protrude therethrough;    providing a cellular phone;    sliding said phone sock onto one of an arm and leg of a wearer such that said phone sock is positioned above the respective hand or foot of the wearer;    biasing an end portion of one of said pair of cuff-bands away from contact with the arm or leg of the wearer;    inserting said cellular phone into said phone sock under said outwardly biased end portion of said one of said pair of cuff-bands until said cellular phone is positioned within said sock body adjacent the arm or leg of the wearer; and    releasing said outwardly biased end portion of said one of said pair of cuff-bands to releasably secure said cellular phone within said tube body of said phone sock adjacent the arm or leg of the wearer.    
   
   
       2 . The method of  claim 1  wherein said cellular phone further includes an antenna and further comprising the step of extending said antenna through said antenna hole formed in said tube body of said phone sock after said cellular phone is inserted into said phone sock.  
   
   
       3 . The method of  claim 1  wherein said step of sliding said phone sock onto an arm or leg of a wearer further comprises said cuff-bands frictionally engaging the arm or leg portion which they are in contact with to releasably secure said phone sock on the arm or leg.
