Then my next-door neighbor, who is handy with a sewing machine, offered to make us a few fabric versions if we supplied material. At the time, advice and designs for cutting old t-shirts and pillowcases into DIY masks proliferated on the internet, and many of us went the homemade route.

In addition, adjustable ear loops and a nose wire allow for a highly customizable fit, combining comfort with a tight seal.
