Palm used for baskets (6)
I believe the answer is:
raffia
'palm used for baskets' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for raffia that I've seen before include "that's seen at evening classes" , "Basket material; affair (anag.)" , "Fibre for making baskets, etc" , "Palm used for weaving baskets, etc" , "Fibre used for weaving mats, baskets, etc" .)
