How dangerous is underwater basket weaving?
Normally it is very safe. However, there are two kinds of basket weaving needles … manual and electric. Unfortunately, there are those who do not heed the warning on electric basket weaving needles, go underwater and get electrocuted. These are the same people who use an electric hair dryer in the bath tub. So, use only manual underwater basket weaving needles, never electric. Oh, one more bit of advice … manual underwater basket weaving needles are frequently more pointed than terrestrial basket weaving needles as the grass material used for weaving sometimes swells with water and the spaces needed to fit the needles decreases resulting in the need for more pointed needles. So, be a bit more careful because if you’re doing the underwater basket weaving in shark infested waters and you prick your finger, you might attract sharks.
