Crochet Face Mask Patterns Frequently Asked Questions

Do crochet face masks work?

Crochet face masks are not suitable for medical use. They are not intended to prevent, treat, mitigate, or cure any health problem, including Covid-19.

These masks, on the other hand, will surely discourage you from constantly touching your face and will contain some of the droplets so that you are less likely to distribute them around.

Are crochet masks effective?

They can be as effective as any cloth mask provided a less porous cloth is used as a lining under the crochet. Crocheted output is by its nature full of gaps and spaces, so I would be reluctant to recommend it be used by itself. The fiber also needs to be washable, such as cotton yarn.

What’s the best yarn to use for crochet face masks?

The ideal yarn weights for crocheted face masks are weight 3 (light/DK) and weight 4 (medium/worsted weight/Aran). You don’t want it to be too thick or too thin, so choose a light or medium weight yarn.
