I'm stuck on No. 9 Across which is What's Cora at? Making a garment. (8) The letters I have are c??n?i?t. I'm not sure if they are all correct. Any help would be most appreciated.

raincoat?

quilting ?

Is that teh eaxct clue? If the word IN was in there then RAINCOAT would work as an anagram of CORA AT IN

[elliemay1]

If it is raincoat, where do the letters i and n come from? CORAAT makes part of raincoat.

I made an error in those letters for No. 9 Across. I think the letters I have should read m??n?o?t. Sorry about the confusion.

moonboot

I can't immediately see the wordplay for that, Baldric

[elliemay1]

I still think it's raincoat.

sorry for interrupting your crossword but this is Conne and I have left you a message. It is in chatterbank. ie for baldric and zacs and others

[darkknight]

I'm very sorry again. I just can seem to concentrate on the crossword at all today. Those letters I have in Clue 9 Across should read r??n?o?t. I think raincoat is the right answer. Thank you to everyone for their help and patience.

as a set of letters, 'cora at' is ra in coat

[darkknight]

Thank you very much bibblebub. I would never have seen that word play at all. I'm just not with it today as I would normally have spotted that. Thanks again.
