Three Grannies

 

My washing machine was made by LG.  It is the Houdini model, and it works great.

I have these sweatpants that have a drawstring around the waist.  I keep three, count em’ three granny knots in the string.  They are pulled tight and never slip.

Here’s the thing, whenever I take these pants out of the wash, the drawstring is completely untied.  Each and every time, as if by magic.

 

PS

There isn’t an Untie setting on the machine.  That’s the first thing I checked.
