Question
Zipping a hoodie with a text on it. Zipping it up will complete the text. Is it allowed on Shabbat?
There are 2 types:
1. Text where one of the letters is on the zipper, so zipping it up creates a letter.
2. A word written half here and half there, and zipping it up only completes the word.

Answer
Hello Rabbi
It is permitted to use such a sweater if he has no other sweater.
