- Hello friends! In today’s video, I demonstrate how to make a KN95 mask cover. In last week’s videos, I showed two ways to make a surgical mask cover. After a lot of practice, I actually modified my technique in the first mask cover and I think I owe it to you guys to show the tweaks. I hope you like this video and please subscribe so you don’t miss out on more free patterns and sewing tips!

If you choose to make the mask cover reversible, adhere to one side per use, and as always, wash your cloth masks between uses. The decision to use this mask is solely your own. Remember to continue to practice good hygiene and protocol. Stay safe! Please follow the recommendations for homemade masks. Also, if you want to add a third layer, you could sew in a polypropylene layer as I demonstrate in my 3D mask tutorial.

Like the pleat update. I added fusible interfacing to the inside of the front layer to add support and further close the fabric threads. As an RN, I wear level 3 or N95 masks. With adding an interfacing and a 2 layer cover this provides a much better shield from the microorganisms entering. I would not recommend flipping the covers after wearing one layer to the outside. Wash the cover before flipping. Also make sure you are washing your hands with soap and water after handling any used mask. Stay safe. Stay well.
Thanks so much for your insight and I completely agree. Cheers 🙂
This is an awesome pattern! I have a friend who has to wear KN95's everyday, and she wants to add a bit of personality to them. Perfect!!
Saw you on tiktok! With the recent surges and my trip to DisneyWorld I want to stay safe but still have a cute mask! This is the perfect solution! Can’t wait to try!!
You always make so easy to understand. The last change in the mask 😷 was toooo fast for me. You had my head spinning. LOL 😆
🥴🤯🙂
I love everything about your voice. I never thought sewing could get any better! And you teach me so much, and you're so funny, too!! Thank you for being you.
Thanks so much for your kind comment 😊
This is wonderful. I'm trying to make a breathable waterproof cover for mine so I can continue to enjoy aquafit in a safe way since social distancing can't be enforced as some participants move around.
Hi I’m from Puerto Rico. I like very much the way you do these custom mask, they look great and perfectly. I enjoy very much your video and masks. I will to do one of your patterns. Look forward to see more of your constructive videos, definitely you are a master teacher! Excelente!
Thank you for this wonderful pattern. I will try this. I have covered one of the masks with different but similar method. They are so difficult to breathe through though. I felt panicky after wearing it a while and that triggered other symptoms; faintness, heart palpitations. I don't have a solution to this conundrum other than try try again... and stay home!
So AWESOME I can't wait to get sewing thank you for sharing this pattern
My pleasure! Happy sewing!!
Thanks for the update.. i made 4 from the old pattern and thought it was a bit loose on the sides so the pleat should help with that, I also thought about putting in a nose wire, especially since I wear eye glasses will help with the fogging.
Thank you so much for letting me know! I hope these modifications help out! :))
yes and as well the best improvment is to use two straps going back head below and over the ears as int eh good designed disposable respirators, not in the generic Chinese KN95. The mask must be really tight fit everywhere, or the air will go in by the gaps. And you will not breathe safely.
Done very well!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for making this pattern. I’m going to make a few of these today.
My pleasure 🥰
I still like your kn95 cover the best :)
Thanks 🥰🥰🥰
Wow!!! I Love Thank you for share videos
Thank you , I love this
I like the update with the pleat. You went way too fast for a novice like me but I can just watch over and over again. Now I wish I had a super cool machine like yours so I don’t have to do a lot of cutting. It would be a huge time saver.
Thank you so much!!! Also yes I’m very fortunate to have this machine, it really does save a lot of time! :)
Looks amazing!! Thank you for sharing
great! easy to follow!!
Thank you so much!
Yesss!!! I love this!
Thank you!
Perfection!
Thanks for sharing. Could you add a scale ruler on your templates please?
Hi. Your tutorials are really helpful. Do u mind doing another tutorial for surgical face mask cover exactly the same like KN95 where u have a hole to put the strap out? I find that it'll help the side of the surgical face mask cover to fit nicely to avoid gaps. Looking forward for the tutorial. Thanks 😊
Where can I find the pattern. So cute
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Thank you 🙏
❤️
My ears are so sore from the all the masks. I love this design, but I need something that I can add ties or all around elastic to keep my ears free. I’m going to look at your videos and I hope I can find something I can adapt.
Thank you for sharing your skills. I’ve seen other videos from you. Very helpful.
Thanks so much. I think this tiktok can help you with your ears.

Now to figure out a cover for an N95 where the straps wrap around the head and neck.
very nice, but you did it with the four pieces why you didn't show one with the two pieces (Option 2) this is the one i would like to do, will you show us how to do Option 2 please
Do you have any tips on how to add a
Zipper to a button down shirt coat? I was to replace the closure on my button up coat with a zipper, if you have any tips I would be extremely grateful
Could you make a slower and more in depth one for beginners?
Do you have a store
In the video, you created the pattern. I printed it out but do I add seam allowance? Or is the seam allowance included in the pattern? I cut put my pattern and it just doesn't seem the same as yours.
A seam allowance of 3/8 all around is included. Cheers
Thank you so much! I just made some of the original surgical mask covers, and am excited to try the upgraded style. Did you try a dart and if so, did you prefer a dart or pleat?
Also, in future videos (or written instructions) perhaps you could clarify what seam allowances you are using for us beginners. In this video, I think I see 1/8, 1/4 and 3/8, but it's hard to tell. And, I'm not sure when it's necessary to backstitch. Thanks so much!
Yes. I'll take this in count. Seam allowance is 3/8". I didn't like it better with the darts so I kept the little pleads. Cheers 😊
@@DowntownTailoring Thank you!
Personally the reason I want a mask cover for the KN95 is not for double masking but it's because KN95 masks are expensive ($1 for 1 disposable mask) so it would be great if when I get home instead of having my mask sit in a bag for 3 days so viruses on it dies or have to throw it away so I just take of the cover and wash the cover.
Good point
That's my reason for it also!! I refuse to throw my money away!!!
@@andreastanton2590 honestly a mask cover would maybe add one extra use but even without a cover you can still use the mask 3 times you just need to quarantine it for 8 days after each use, a mask cover would still be good though because it might add a extra use and you wouldn't have to quarantine the mask for 8 days each time.
I tell people that I make mask for that masks are like bras. Once you get them home you have to adjust the straps! The ladies get it, but not so sure the guys do. Lol
Yes! Agreed 😉

Hi. I don’t see your pattern. Please advise. Thank you.
I love this, thank you!! I was wondering how long does the line have to be for the pleating porting?
1 inch long at 1/8th
Do you have them for sale?
Yes. This is the link to my etsy shop:

Can you make a mask that is suitable for those of us that have breathing issues? I have obstructive airway disease. I still have to wear a mask. But when I'm shopping, I feel like I'm going to pass out.
I would reccomend either a face shield or you could make a simple 2 layer mask with no filter, the face shield is good for keeping you safe as it blocks most droplets from hitting your face but the 2 layer mask wont be so effective so make sure you social distance with the 2 layer mask or even wear a face shield over the mask.
That wasn't a cover
