Jacket and cigar replaced (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cardigan

'jacket' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'and cigar replaced' is the wordplay.
'replaced' indicates anagramming the letters.
'and'+'cigar'='andcigar'
'andcigar' anagrammed gives 'CARDIGAN'.

(Other definitions for cardigan that I've seen before include "part of Wales once" , "Noble officer" , "Knitted garment" , "Arcading in woolly garment" , "location of Welsh bay" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
