« The second pair of women's leggings is made of a single piece of red wool felt edged with green cotton tape. The seam is sewn so as to leave a narrow flap at the distal end just above the point where the leggings narrow at the ankle. A strip of purple silk is sewn to the edge at this point as a tie (fig. 25c). »

« La seconde paire de jambières pour femme est faite d’une seule pièce de feutre de laine rouge bordée par du ruban de coton vert. La couture est cousue de manière à laisser un rabat étroit à l’extrémité distale juste au-dessus de l’endroit où les jambières deviennent étroites à la cheville. À cet endroit, une bande de soie mauve est cousue à la bordure pour servir d’attache (fig. 25c). »
