Stay-at-home dad has unused hob worked out? (5,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

house husband

'stay-at-home dad' is the definition.
(term for a father who doesn't work)

'has unused hob worked out?' is the wordplay.
'worked out?' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'worked out' mean this).
'has'+'unused'+'hob'='hasunusedhob'
'hasunusedhob' anagrammed gives 'HOUSE-HUSBAND'.

(Other definitions for house husband that I've seen before include "Male partner responsible for domestic duties" , "Male with an iron and a feather duster?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
