Yarn coil (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skein

'yarn coil' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for skein that I've seen before include "Hank" , "Clock face" , "Loosely-coiled bundle of wool" , "Loosely coiled length of thread" , "Flock of flying geese" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the Sydney Morning Herald.
