2.61
"If a monk has a new rug made purely of the black wool of black goats, it is a niḥsargika-prāyaścittika." / In this full precept text there are three clauses: first, the person committing the offense; second, making a rug of wool; third, determining the offense. "If a monk" is explained as above. "Purely of black wool" means whether naturally black or dyed black. "Niḥsargika-prāyaścittika" is the name of the offense; the aspects of the offense are as in the previous precept. As for non-offense, the Vinaya states: if one obtains what is already made, or if it has been cut and spoiled, or if thin layers are folded into a double thickness, or if it is a small sitting mat, or if one makes a knee-pad, or if one makes a cap, or makes socks, or makes a hot-tongs cloth, or makes an inner lining cloth for leather sandals—none of these are items worn over the body, so they are permitted and there is no offense.
