Button mask

You have to get creative when elastic is hard to find. I like this better than having the elastic around my ears any way. My own design.

Did you see the crocheted band that someone made to bridge the area between buttons on either end of the mask? I thought it was clever. I like this chintz looking flowered fabric.

@randystreat No, I didn't see one that was crocheted. I'd be worried about the weave not being tight enough to hold out germs, but I did think about trying to make the back band crocheted.

@homeschoolmom The mask was made of cloth (pleated) and the ends had buttons. The crocheted section just bridged the back of the head between the two buttons. I did see, and thought about it, a crocheted mask, but you're right. Too loose. Not worth the time taken to make it. Here's the idea. https://www.diply.com/125824/crochet-mask-mates-make-wearing-a-mask-for-long-hours-much-more-

Very clever.
