Crossword Genius

Better spinner's cap and sweater? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

top

I believe this is a quadruple definition!!

'better' is the first definition.
(top can mean to better or outdo)

'spinner's' is the second definition.
(a spinning top)

'cap' is the third definition.
(synonyms)

'and' is a link.

'sweater?' is the fourth definition.
(both can mean an item of clothing)

(Other definitions for top that I've seen before include "Summit or spinning toy" , "cap and > sweater" , "Apex; child's toy" , "Toy; uppermost point" , "Highest part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
