Penelope cleverly avoids remarriage for three years by employing a ruse of weaving and unweaving a burial shroud for her father-in-law, Laertes. Each night, she secretly unravels her day's work, maintaining the illusion that she is still in mourning for Odysseus and thus postponing her suitors.

Additionally, her intelligence and loyalty to Odysseus serve as a strong motivator to resist pressure to remarry.
