Foreman maybe embraced by group blushing? (7)
I believe the answer is:
scarlet
'blushing?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'foreman maybe embraced by group' is the wordplay.
'foreman maybe' becomes 'carl' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'embraced by' is an insertion indicator.
'group' becomes 'set' (both can mean a collection).
'carl' put within 'set' is 'SCARLET'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scarlet that I've seen before include "Bright red of clarets" , "bloody?" , "Brilliant red colour" , "Clarets (anag.)" , "Miss O'Hara appearing briefly" .)
