Crochet Face Mask Covering
"This is pattern for cheap, partially or totally reusable face mask with unique delicate style. Me and my dad ended up to design this, because times are quite weird and unsettling and we wanted to do something to help people. This pattern includes accurate instructions and step-by-step phototutorials to construct the crocheted frame and filter.
Novita Cotton Crochet, Eldorado Puppets N.10 and Scheepjes Maxi Sugar Rush are the best yarn options for this pattern. This kind of mask is meant to be accessory which helps its wearer to protect others from infectious droplets caused by coughing, sneezing or exhaling. Do not assume that this will protect you from viruses, because the protection level for self-made masks is unknown. This is not medical product."
