My mother always had cold hands and had quilts wrapped round them. My father had gout and had I been sewing at that time I would have made him some large slippers with very soft underneath and soft fastenings. They would have been useful for an aunt with leukaemia who ha users on her feet.
Some people like their head covered to keep the heat in.
Loads of bags of different sizes to hang up in their rooms as they can't pick items off the floor.
