NYT Strands today — hints, answers and spangram for Thursday, April 18 (game #46)

The answers to today's Strands, game #46, are…

  • THREAD
  • NEEDLE
  • STITCH
  • THIMBLE
  • SEAM
  • CLOTH
  • PATCH
  • SPANGRAM: TAILORING
  • My rating: Easy
  • My score: Perfect

The pun-tastic theme hint today made this game a relatively easy one. 'Sew what?' could only really refer to one thing – there's no room for ambiguity there, is there? – so the challenge was simply in finding the relevant words.

NEEDLE was an obvious one, as were THREAD and STITCH. I guessed TAILOR fairly early on, too, but when that didn't turn blue I realized it must be part of the spangram instead; TAILORING then gave the board some structure and it was easy enough to find the remaining words.
