      This one was a little harder (for me) and I really liked it!

              1A was giving Shel Silverstein. Lots of fun!
              1A
              It sounds like what you're doin' when you're clearin' out your throat - / Ejectin', for example, a crumb of macaroon. / (Sometimes, if you hear that, you really should take note. / If you hear that from inside this thing, you've closed this thing too soon!)

              1. 1A
                It sounds like what you're doin' when you're clearin' out your throat - / Ejectin', for example, a crumb of macaroon. / (Sometimes, if you hear that, you really should take note. / If you hear that from inside this thing, you've closed this thing too soon!)
              2. 5A
                Made of yarn, it warms your neck. (That's where this is wound.) / Made of steel, it's in your car, there to squelch the sound.
              3. 6A
                Six letters, two syllables, and only one vowel (and not one of the Big 5, at that!). / It's something that would serve you well if you're called upon to scat.
              Down
              1. 1D
                I didn't need it as a baby, but I did as a young man. / To keep one in my pocket then was in my daily plan. / Much older now, my need for it has gone and disappeared. / Its teeth would only scratch my skin, and that would just feel weird.
              2. 2D
                It's what I am to "irate", and he to "hedonistic". / (Focus on the numbers here and not the characteristic.)
              3. 3D
                Cartographers are careful; give these folks their due. This might be a little black dot they've placed amongst the blue.
              4. 4D
                The ear, keen on music, knows an instrument by its tone. / Could this instrument be its favorite, since it has one of its own?
