I'm left with 4 unsolved:

1) Blanket, back or herringbone, for example (6)

_t_t_n

2) transgressor (6)

_i_n_r

3) Measure of a fuse's capacity (abbrev) (3)

a_p

4) illness involving abnormal self-absorption (6)

a_t_s_


Not sure if the letters are right...

1) should be STITCH, so it may be worth looking over where that N came from again.

I used to play here:

But nowadays I do my crosswords when I'm at work, so it's always ink on paper.
