Skip in from Italy (4)

I believe the answer is:

omit

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

'in from italy' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'OMIT' is hidden in the letters of 'from italy'.

(Other definitions for omit that I've seen before include "Exclude; veto" , "Leave out, do not include (4)" , "Leave out or neglect" , "Miss out" , "by-pass" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
