Menace -- weaver? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

loom

I believe this is a double definition.

'menace' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'weaver?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for loom that I've seen before include "'Appear as a vague form, perhaps threatening (4)'" , "Appear large and indistinct, to weave?" , "Appear indistinctly, in threatening form" , "Apparatus for weaving cloth" , "Rise up threateningly ahead" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
