Mink, perhaps, was first rolled up (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

furled

'rolled up' is the definition.
('furl' can be a synonym of 'roll up')

'mink perhaps was first' is the wordplay.
'mink perhaps' becomes 'fur' (mink is a kind of fur).
'was first' becomes 'led' (to lead is to go first).
'fur'+'led'='FURLED'

(Other definitions for furled that I've seen before include "Rolled up neatly" , "All wrapped up" .)
