Heat-resistant articles are woven differently (8)
I believe the answer is:
ovenware
'heat-resistant' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'articles are woven differently' is the wordplay.
'articles' says to put letters next to each other.
'differently' indicates an anagram.
'are' next to 'woven' is 'arewoven'.
'arewoven' with letters rearranged gives 'OVENWARE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ovenware that I've seen before include "Casserole dishes etc" , "Dishes for baking/roasting" , "casseroles perhaps" , "set of pots say?" , "Casseroles, say" .)
