I used hair bands and clipped them together at the back with a nappy pin. The buff keeps a couple of folded sheets of tissue within quite well if you want to add extra layers.

loving my chevron blanket and whilst I am feeling the mojo return I have purchased a pattern called ripple camisole to use with some of my bestest yarn that I had no idea what to do with!

Here is my selection
I'm thinking the left side will be the ones I go for. I'm hoping it's a multiple use pattern!!

OK I've made a couple of masks with pipe cleaner inserts but how do you stop your specs steaming up? It's hard enough to see at the moment with my cataracty right eye!!

Gus you make sure the pipe cleaner is really well adapted over your nose, and there’s a bit of space at the bottom or the sides for your breath to escape!

Very slow to the party but have to add how much I love Drell's latest go. Just wow!
Also liked the other go's and have yearning to knit top- down matinee jackets and stitch knickers...
I made three masks out of ditzy pattern cotton today before I had to rest. It was quite relaxing. I used the pattern that HB pointed us to. They have gone to my daughter's and grand-daughter.
I now need to find something a bit more culturally appropriate for son-i-l and three grandsons. Mr has bought bandanas and plans to wear them as masks. I plan to use buffs or similar. Not sure Mr or I need to wear masks at all but I'm guessing that, when this becomes the norm, folks will worry if we don't.

I was complimented on my mask by a young assistant in Waitrose yesterday. (He was wearing a surgical mask). There were only a couple of people with masks/face coverings on. We agreed it should be me and that once more people started wearing them others will follow. At the moment I feel like the of one out but at some point people without will feel like that!
