Loop of rope (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

noose

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">loop of rope</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for noose that I've seen before include "Loop in a rope made with a slip knot" , "head could go in it" , "Device for capital punishment" , "Hanging loop in rope" , "Hangman's or cowboy's loop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, The Mirror and The Times.
