Get weaving as a raconteur (4,1,4)
I believe the answer is:
spin a yarn
'get weaving' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'as a raconteur' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'as' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is found in the answer.
'a' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spin a yarn that I've seen before include "tell a complicated story?" , "Pin Aryans down to tell a tall or invented story" , "A textile worker might" .)
