Hole for a shoelace (6)
I believe the answer is:
eyelet
'hole for a shoelace' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for eyelet that I've seen before include "Grommet for a shoe" , "Small opening in needle for thread" , "Small reinforced hole" , "Hole for fastener" , "It is tiny place" .)
