Try a kitchen towel, wrap it around the existing knobs or corners of your drawers and cabinets. Kind of a half knot situation, wrap it over the knob or through it and cross it up. You can the take the 2 tail ends in your hand and have increased leverage and grip

I too was thinking of something to attach to the stock knob. Could even be decorative like a macrame loop.

Ooohh that's a great idea. Nice long tassels that are easy to grip but also look nice. Top notch idea

Thanks, my wife is an occupational therapist, and we often brainstorm adaptive equipment for her patients.

That's pretty rad my dude. Makes me happy to hear that you're taking an active part in not only your wife's career and self betterment, but also trying to help her help people. That's good wholesome type stuff right there.

Thank you. I'm just a product of my dad, who grew up through the depression and WWII, when ingenuity and re-use was the norm. His 1940s house's main source of framing was discarded pallets. ~~~~
