Flimsy fabrication of lies? (6)
I believe the answer is:
tissue
This clue could be a double definition.
'flimsy fabrication' is the first definition.
'tissue' can be an answer for 'fabrication' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'flimsy' bit.
'lies?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tissue that I've seen before include "Fine soft paper" , "Type of paper" , "Thin stuff" , "'Soft, thin paper (6)'" , "Gauzy fabric" .)
