Bandanas for face masks

Jeff from Freemans Bay

I see Repco are selling Canteen bandanas for $5.10 each. They are 560 mm square so much better than a handkerchief. I have made a mask from a bandana - they end up at least 4 layers thick so they do work well but are breathable. You just need to find some medium size rubber bands in your house.
