Crossword Genius

Drawn and knotted (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tied

This clue is a double definition.

'drawn' is the first definition.
('tie' can be a synonym of 'draw')

'knotted' is the second definition.
('tied' can be similar in meaning to 'knotted')

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tied that I've seen before include "(Of pub) brewery-owned" , "United" , "Knotted" , "limited" , "Bonded" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
