The crumpled state in which linen is found (4)
I believe the answer is:
ecru
'linen is found' is the definition.
I know that 'linen' relates to this answer.
'the crumpled state in' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'ECRU' is hidden in the letters of 'the crumpled state'.
'which' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ecru that I've seen before include "Pale, creamy brown" , "natural colour" , "Greyish-yellow colour" , "Find a cure, strangely, in the colour" , "Light fawn colour" .)
