Look around edges of thicket for a glove (6)
I believe the answer is:
mitten
'glove' is the definition.
(I know that mitten is a type of glove)
'look around edges of thicket' is the wordplay.
'look' becomes 'mien' (mien means a look or impression).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'edges of' suggests removing the centre.
'thicket' with its centre removed is 'tt'.
'mien' enclosing 'tt' is 'MITTEN'.
'for a' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for mitten that I've seen before include "Fingerless glove" , "boxing glove" , "Glove with no separate fingers" , "Simple glove" , "A glove with no partitions for fingers" .)
