[AnnisHayma]

I’m stuck on the NYT Crossword clue “envelop and obscure nyt” — my letters don’t fit. Has anyone filled this in or can give a small hint (please no full spoiler)? Thanks!

The answer to the New York Times clue “Envelop and obscure” is SHROUD. It is a six-letter word meaning to envelop or obscure, as a cloth or covering concealing something from view

 

[Grayson Wilder]

The New York Times crossword answer is likely "ENSHROUD." It means to envelop or obscure thoroughly. Used as a verb, enshroud conveys covering something completely so it's hidden from view, fitting the clue perfectly in both sense and length, too.
