Usage notes

Usage of this term as an antonym of unravelable over the simpler and more immediately logical choice ravelable is explained by the fact that ravel is a contranym which can mean either "to entangle" or "to pull apart." Hence, ravelable could mean either "capable of being woven/entangled" or "capable of being pulled apart/unravelled."

Synonyms

(difficult to understand): unfathomable
