Users comments
Sweaters are often difficult to button.
Blouses can be too tight across the stomach and do not fit a person with quadriplegia who sits slumped.
Occasionally the user finds clothing that fits her in the stores. She feels that Gudrun Sjöden, gudrunsjoden.com/en-us, often has appropriate clothing (last checked May 2020).

She borrowed the idea of buttoning a sweater with a wool band from a sweater by Gudrun Sjödén, (photo above), see related hint.
