Facemasks - fitted or pleated for speech?

[frankly frankie]

I have a (yacf) buff.  And another buff (winter mode) and I've repurposed a couple of shirts (it's OK, they were already in the rag bag - does anyone else have a rag bag any more?).

I used the govt approved 15cm x 25 cm design instructions.

I find a cotton T-shirt sleeve is quick and easy - sew the cut end up and turn inside out for that professionally-tailored look, leave the other end open to add an insert if desired, knicker-elastic to the corners.

But I'm generally wearing a buff to go into supermarkets.

& no, I haven't worked out how to stop glasses misting up.  Luckily I don't use them for close up, which tends to be when I need to speak.

Tissue folded up tucked in the top works for me to stop the misting, with a Buff. Not tried that trick with the mask yet.
