Crooked, awry (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

askew

I believe this is a double definition.

'crooked' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'awry' is the second definition.
(I know that awry can be written as askew)

(Other definitions for askew that I've seen before include "Towards one side, awry" , "irregular" , "Wonky" , "Twisted" , "Leaning to one side" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
