Fibre used to make baskets and mats (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

raffia

(Other definitions for raffia that I've seen before include "A binding" , "Fibre for tying and weaving" , "Type of palm tree" , "Tropical palm leaf fibres used to make mats etc" , "Palm used for weaving baskets, etc" .)

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