Where This Clue Appears
The CodyCross clue “Process cotton thread to strengthen it” is answered by MERCERIZE, a 9-letter entry in the Australia world, group 1017, puzzle 5. The full puzzle page lists every other clue in that same grid, which is usually what you want if more than one row is blocking you.
Check the letter count before you commit. CodyCross fixes the length of every row before you type, and the game reuses the same clue wording in different worlds with entirely different solutions — so a clue that looks identical to one you have already solved may want a different word here. If your grid shows a different number of squares than the 9 above, you are almost certainly on the same clue from another world.
