Crossword Genius

Pinched item of clothing (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stole

I believe this is a double definition.

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

'item of clothing' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for stole that I've seen before include "Purloined; shawl" , "Made off with clerical vestment?" , "Woman's scarf worn about the shoulders" , "Wrap or scarf" , "cover" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
