Covering a sound sleeper (4)

The Knap is the amount of wool (or other synthetic stuff) on a paint roller. Depends on what sort of paint you are using as to which "knap" you choose.Sounds like nap as in sleep.

Just guessing again :-)

Hi Peter
It would help if you indicated the clue number and if it was "across" or "down".
ie. 12d) 13a).
Sometimes it makes a difference in the way the clue is written. Other times it may indicate "crossing letters".
Cheers.

Knap does not seem to be right now that I have worked out following "Wear the writer out,crossing river in ancient vessel =trireme .Therefore I now have ?T?P=STEP??

a top ? - covering. A + top (sleeping like a top?) a wild guess maybe !

Yes could be..I am presuming that "Summon artist producing exciting work (4-6)" = page turner?

You got it, Chrisg. Was about to post this from Chambers:

sleep like a top
To sleep very soundly

Not sure about "step"
Trireme fits beautifully.
Atop fits the definition ....but I can't parse it.
Will keep "thinkin"

Yep...you others have answered whilst I was "thinking"
Thanks Syz and Chris
