One providing yarns in court left German over dispute (4-6)
I believe the answer is:
wool-grower
'one providing yarns' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'court left german over dispute' is the wordplay.
'court left' becomes 'wool' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'german' becomes 'ger' (abbreviation).
'over' is an insertion indicator.
'dispute' becomes 'row' (row is a kind of dispute).
'ger' enclosing 'row' is 'grower'.
'wool'+'grower'='WOOL-GROWER'
'in' is the link.
