How to build SAWN from the tiles

In 7 Little Words you don't type the answer — you assemble it from the puzzle's shared tile bank, and every tile is used exactly once across all seven answers. Puzzle 2's tiles for October 5, 2026 are:

SW · IFT · CR · AM · PON · CLO · UDIN · ESS · GL · EAM · ING · SA · WN · DIS · LI · KES · SUB · STI · TUT · ED

SAWN is built by combining the tiles SA · WN in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in SAWN early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
