minus-squarefar_university1990@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days agoHuh? Is sow not use thread to attach pocket to trouser without pocket?
minus-squaredarctones@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 days ago‘Sow’ is to scatter seeds, as in the phrase ‘you reap,!what you sow’ ‘Sew’ is with a needle and thread. The word play seemed ironic, because you can sow cotton to make thread to sew a button.
