Money, nothing more, for fine, soft wool (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cashmere

'fine soft wool' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'money nothing more' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'cash' (cash is a type of money).
'nothing more' becomes 'mere' (I've seen this before).
'cash'+'mere'='CASHMERE'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for cashmere that I've seen before include "A schemer in expensive wool" , "Fine wool for a schemer" , "Soft fabric made from a goat's wool" , "fine material" , "fine cloth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
