This pattern is very easy to make and only takes a small amount of time and yarn to complete. I suggest you use cotton yarn only and acrylic buttons due to ease of cleaning / washing on a high temp and decontamination protocols that are put in place for workers.

I am so happy so many would like to help out making these mask adapters to help all our NHS staff and any frontline and key workers. I have made some for local G.P. Surgeries, Independent Pharmacies, NHS staff, Nurses & Paramedics and Carers. It would be a good idea to check with your local health board or whoever you are making them for, to see if their protocols allow them to wear them before donating them.
