Take the sock intended for your left ear. Fold the toe to the heel. It should be folded so that the sock's heel will point to the back side of your head and the folded part will be on the outside.

Lay the zipper out across the face of the folded sock. Lay this out as close to the heel as possible. An inch over where the zipper extends past the edge of the sock, cut the zipper (see secondary picture).

Cut a hole in the sock 2/3 the size of the zipper. Place the zipper inside the sock and fold the cut end of the zipper over upon itself about half an inch. Pin this fold to your sock with safety pins.

Open the zipper and then hand sew it to your sock.

If you are skilled with a sewing machine, then by all means use one. I am not, so I didn't.
