Crossword Genius

Ordered in more wool (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

merino

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

'ordered in more' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates an anagram.
'in'+'more'='inmore'
'inmore' with letters rearranged gives 'MERINO'.

(Other definitions for merino that I've seen before include "Sheep bred for its long, fine wool" , "Can this sheep be found in Rome?" , "Fine-woolled sheep" , "Long-haired sheep" , "Fine soft woolen yarn" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
