Pinched a shawl (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stole

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'pinched' is the first definition.
(pinch can mean to steal)

'a shawl' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for stole that I've seen before include "Took - scarf" , "Nicked - wrap" , "ripped off" , "Item of clothing" , "Made off with clerical vestment?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Daily Express.
