Ok this may sound odd
I was working with the canvas I got on my recent course and using it to make outter mittens. It is fairly thick stuff, but after putting it down and popping for lunch and have a sausage on a roll, I got this weird taste in mouth and it seemed to linger, like a sharp horrible taste. Not it wasn't the food or anything, when I licked my finger (as you do ) the taste was on there as well. Washed my hands throughly after eating to see if that would work and it just manages to get rid of it. Its the same taste I had when I was cutting the outer mittens out of a large canvas sheet on the course and it put me off my lunch then.
I am just wondering if the canvas may have been treated with something, if so whats the best way to get rid of it as I don't fancy having this taste each time I wear the mittens.
Failing that if there is no way to get rid of the taste I do have a swedish smock here that I can cut up.
