How To Deceive Your Suitors For Three Years

Suitors can be quite the drag, especially when you have a husband lost at sea. Yet Penelope was able to keep her suitors at bay for THREE WHOLE YEARS. How did she do it??

Penelope set up a great loom in the royal halls and she began to weave. She would lead on the suitors saying to them "my suitors, keen as you are to marry me, until I can finish off this web... so my weaving won't all fray and come to nothing." Penelope put off choosing a husband among the suitors by saying that she must first finish weaving a shroud for Laertes

So by day she'd weave at her great and growing web--by night, by the light of torches set beside her, she would unravel all she'd done. Thus she delayed for three years until a treacherous maid spilled the beans.

So basically, if you are looking for a nearly fool proof way to decieve your suitors, you will need to

1. Have an aging and dying father

2. Learn how to weave shrouds

3. Learn how to unravel shrouds late at night

4. Don't keep around any maids who aren't loyal to you completely.
