#the fishing weights say they contain lead so I covered them with waterproof sealant when I bought them

I haven't actually measured it yet but I think there's 10 or 11 feet of weaving here? I made a lot of mistakes in the last little bit but overall I'm very happy with it.
After removing it from the loom, I washed it in cold water and a leetle detergent because I used fishing weights and I am paranoid about lead even though the risk is pretty minimal.
Tomorrow I'm cutting it up to make lanyard wristlets! a nice Halloween vibe for the market on Saturday.
video description: a white person wearing a gray compression glove unwraps a long tablet weaving from a loom. the weaving is a narrow band with a Celtic twist pattern in orange and ivory. the first two thirds has an orange and cream border, and the last third has a dark purple border. The video is silent except for wooden loom noises and my own heavy breathing.
#the fishing weights say they contain lead so I covered them with waterproof sealant when I bought them#and washed them thoroughly afterward#but still I worry about contamination#hence washing anything made with the fishing weights#Honestly I need to just buck up and buy more expensive weights that I won't be paranoid about using
