七中。綵線靴鞋者，儀云：時有作三臺龍鳳（得頭有三層者），及錯綵線綺繡刺成者入重。男女衣服，即童男稚女花綵之衣。補方，舊云：即裁五彩畟方補合成者。儀云：繡纈結絡，綺錯綵袋，俱從重收；純色氈袋等，竝入分也。繡綺鉢袋輕者，隨鉢判故。若準儀文云：繡綵裝飾者，可單抽重收，事同繡錦之服故。

In the seventh: regarding boots and shoes of coloured thread, The Ceremonial Standard states: "Those made at that time with three platforms, dragons, and phoenixes (having three tiers on the toe), or embroidered and stitched with variegated coloured threads, are reckoned as heavy. Men's and women's clothing refers to the flower-patterned, coloured clothes of young boys and girls. Patchwork squares: an ancient commentary says: 'That is, cut from five colours into square patches and sewn together.' The Ceremonial Standard states: 'Embroidered, tie-dyed, braided, intricately patterned coloured bags are all reckoned as heavy; solid-coloured felt bags and the like are all eligible for distribution.' That embroidered, intricate bowl bags are light is because they are judged along with the bowl. If one follows the text of the Ceremonial Standard, it states: 'Decorated with embroidered colours, they may be singly extracted and reckoned as heavy, because their matter is identical to clothing of embroidered brocade.'"
