Simple facemask slot for filter

🚨 🚨 Coronavirus is really scary!!!

Something simple as touching your mouth nose or eyes with your hands is nothing to joke about! Times like these you should be prayed 🙏 🙏 up asking God to put a hedge of protection around you and your loved ones! God says in his word there will be wars and roomers of wars well here you go . Dont take life lightly people!! Love you all ❤ ❤ with all of my heart 

      Simple fun easy to do facemask .All you need is any yarn a hook and ☕ coffee filters ! Thats right I said it coffee filters. 

The size hook I used vs what you think you should depends on you I used 5mm hook . But I used a bean stitch and half double crochet. So my stitch is close just like single crochet 

Pattern notes 

1. For row 1 once I had row 1 finished I then did a hdc on the side and continued to the other side (36)

2. I did  6 more  rows before I started to do decrease so row 7 start with 2 decreases in the beginning and the end of the row

3. Decrease again in row 8

4. A decrease in last 2 rows

Ive had trouble figuring out how much yarn is used in my pattern course each pattern has a different stitch so with using a hdc and a BS I got 9 stitches to equal one yard of yarn thats 36 inches so for the whole mask itself should be.      yards
