He lost a bet with the dwarves. The original bet called for them to cut Loki's head off if he lost. He told them that to cut off his head meant they would have to cut through his neck. He reminded them that his neck was not part of the bet, so they couldn't cut it. Therefore, they sewed his lips shut instead.

In Norse mythology, Loki had his lips sewn together as a punishment for causing mischief and chaos among the gods. The punishment was carried out by the dwarf who crafted his punishment to silence him.
