Abstract

An elastically modifiable wallet is an apparatus that is able to hold and organize a user's financial or personal items in accordance to how frequently the user accesses each financial or personal item. The apparatus includes a tubular band, a tubular strap, a tubular strip, a finger loop, a first stitch, and a second stitch. The tubular band, the tubular strap, the tubular strip, and the finger loop are each made of elastic fabric. The tubular band is used to hold weekly/occasionally used items, such as business cards. The tubular strap is used to hold daily used items, such as a regular credit card. The tubular strip is used to hold frequently used items, such as loose cash. The finger loop allows a user to easily grasp and disengage the tubular strip. The first stitch and the second stitch are used to hold these pieces of elastic fabric together.
