Raised furore, wanting son to marry (4)
I believe the answer is:
knit
'marry' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't understand how one could define the other.
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for knit that I've seen before include "Use needles to make clothes" , "Use needles and wool" , "Link closely together" , "Make stitches?" , "Put together" .)
