Tom Hanks was one of the first celebrities to announce his positive diagnosis of COVID-19 last month. Now, the actor's son, Colin Hanks, is turning his hobby of crafting kerchiefs into a nationwide charity effort.
Colin has followed in the footsteps of his father as an actor. In 2019, he appeared in "Jumanji: The Next Level."
But the 42-year-old also runs a business on the side named Hanks Kerchiefs, which sells patterned kerchiefs online.
Tom's son first took to his Instagram on Friday to share tips of his trade. For anyone with their own kerchiefs, scarfs or bandanas at home, Colin provided a step-by-step tutorial of how to turn the small accessory into a sew-free face mask.
TOM HANKS, RITA WILSON OUT OF HOSPITAL FIVE DAYS AFTER ANNOUNCING CORONAVIRUS DIAGNOSIS: REPORT
"How to turn your kerchief into a face mask. Don't forget to put you (sic) kerchief in the washing machine afterwards!" Colin wrote on Instagram.
The post included a slideshow of photos involving each step needed to properly fold and tie the kerchief. To make the mask, Colin instructs people to lay the kerchief down on a surface, folding the top and bottom towards the center of the cloth. Then, he instructs his followers to flip the kerchief over and fold the top and bottom halves once again to meet in the center.
Colin then places two hair ties around each side of the kerchief, folding the outer sides to the center.

"This is the part that faces your mouth," he wrote in the caption before modeling off the creation.
In a second post, Colin announced that his company is joining seven other brands for an online raffle titled "Bandana Rama Online Raffle." In addition to Hanks Kerchiefs, a number of textile and accessory brands will sell bandanas, hats, jackets, backpacks, home goods and more.

The online raffle features three prizes totaling $2,400. It began on April 3 and will continue through April 6 at midnight PST.
