Crossword Genius

Pace around in cloak (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cape

'cloak' is the definition.
(cape is a kind of cloak)

'pace around' is the wordplay.
'around' is an anagram indicator.
'pace' with letters rearranged gives 'CAPE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cape that I've seen before include "Cloak or headland (4)" , "Wrap" , "Garment - promontory" , "Cod possibly" , "Notorious Chilean headland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
