Fabric gloomy urchin used at centre to make something to wear (6)
I believe the answer is:
brooch
'fabric' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for brooch that I've seen before include "Ornamental hinged pin with clasp" , "Ornament with a hinged pin and catch" , "Ornament fastened with a pin" , "Ornament worn fastened to clothing" , "Piece of jewellery" .)
