Where lace is woven on to a piece of cloth (6)
I believe the answer is:
locale
'where' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.
'lace is woven on to a piece of cloth' is the wordplay.
'is woven' indicates an anagram.
'on' is an insertion indicator (as in clothing 'on' a person).
'to a piece of cloth' becomes 'lo' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'lace' anagrammed gives 'cale'.
'cale' going around 'lo' is 'LOCALE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for locale that I've seen before include "Place (of an event)" , "Area connected with event" , "Venue" , "Place associated with particular events" , "Setting" .)
