Leaves from a palm tree used for making baskets (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

raffia

(Other definitions for raffia that I've seen before include "Leaves used in mats and baskets" , "Palm fibre for e.g. baskets" , "Plant fibre used in weaving" , "Fibre for tying and weaving" , "Type of palm tree" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
