Warm clothing king's taken to a winter resort (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

knitwear

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

'king's taken to a winter resort' is the wordplay.
'king' becomes 'k'.
'taken to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'resort' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'winter'='awinter'
'awinter' is an anagram of 'nitwear'.
'k'+'nitwear'='KNITWEAR'

(Other definitions for knitwear that I've seen before include "Jumpers and cardies etc" , "Woollen clothing" , "Woollen garments" , "'Woolly jumpers, socks etc (8)'" , "Woollen goods" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
