The epidemic affects the whole country, and wearing masks has become an important part of fighting the epidemic. Due to the prolonged time of fighting the epidemic and the huge number of masks consumed, there was a serious shortage of masks. On the one hand, a few illegal businesses took the opportunity to raise prices, on the other hand, it was difficult to buy masks at high prices in the market. Therefore, the masks in various places are in urgent need, what should I do?

If you make masks at home, as long as everyone acts, I believe that this people’s war against the epidemic will soon be won.

Self-made mask methods and steps:

Step 1: Select raw materials. The first is to find out what materials the masks are made of. The mask is mainly composed of three layers: the surface layer, the inner layer and the inner layer. The surface layer can choose some relatively smooth fabrics, the inner layer uses cotton, cotton yarn and other filtering materials, and the inner layer can use some soft cotton cloth. In this way, when it is close to our face, it can be more comfortable.

Therefore, I chose the surface material as the handbag that some companies usually give away. The inner layer material is cotton gauze, but it needs to be folded a few more layers, because this layer is the most critical, it will filter the air entering the mask to block some contaminated gases. The material of the inner layer is relatively easy, just choose some soft cotton cloth. Finally, we also need to find an elastic band as a mask band.

Step 2: The production process

First make a paper template according to the size, use the template to press on the above three materials, draw the size of the template with a picture, and cut and shape, then put the three materials together in sequence, and finally sew with needle thread. When sewing, the elastic band should be sewed tightly, but a gap should be left, and the surface cloth should be turned out to become a complete mask.

If you learn to make a mask yourself, you do n’t have to worry about not buying a mask. If you think the above method is practical and effective, do n’t forget to share it with others and let more people who ca n’t buy a mask make it yourself.
