Jerusalem Talmud Moed Katan 1:8

משנה: הַהֶדְיוֹט תּוֹפֵר כְּדַרְכּוֹ וְהָאוֹמָּן מְכַלֶּב. וּמְסָרְגִין אֶת הַמִּיטּוֹת רִבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר אַף מְמַתְּחִין׃ MISHNAH: Rebbi Jehudah says, she may not use lime¹³²They used to use lime as a depilatory on the face which at the same time irritated the skin and thereby increased the blood flow to made gave more color to the cheeks. The beauty treatment described was applied mainly to single girls to make them more marriageable. because it disfigures her.

הלכה: דְּבֵית רִבִּי יַנַּיי אָֽמְרוּ. כְּדַרְכּוֹ מְמַלֵּא אֶת הַמַּחַט. מְכַלֶּב אַחַת אַחַת. רִבִּי יוֹחָנָן אָמַר. כְּדַרְכּוֹ אַחַת אַחַת. מְכַלֶּב מַפְסִיעַ. מַתְנִיתָה מְסַייְעָא לְרִבִּי יוֹחָנַן. הָרוֹצְעָנִין מַכַלְּבִין בַּמּוֹעֵד. אִין תֵּימַר אַחַת אַחַת. כָּךְ הִיא אוּמְנוֹתָן. אֶלָּא כִי נָן קַייָמִין בְּמַפְסִיעַ. אֵי זֶהוּ הֶדְיוֹט וְאֵי זְהוּ אוּמָּן. אָמַר רִבִּי יוֹסֵי בֶּן חֲנִינָה. כָּל־שֶׁהוּא מְזַוֵּיג אֶת הָאוֹמֵרִיּוֹת זֶהוּ אומָּן. וְכָל־שׁאֵינוֹ מְזַוֵּיג אֶת הָאוֹמֵרִיּוֹת זֶה הוּא הֶדְיוֹט. אָמַר רִבִּי סִימוֹן. בְּתוֹפֵר כִּיסִּין כִּיסִּין הִיא מַתְנִיתָא. HALAKHAH: In the House of Rebbi Yannai they said, “normally”, he fills his needle. “Staples”, stitch by stitch¹⁴²The unprofessional may fully use the thread in his needle; the professional has to take a new thread for every stitch. Nothing is said about the quality of the sewing.. Rebbi Joḥanan said, “normally”, stitch by stitch. “Staples”, he jumps¹⁴³The unprofessional may do his best on the holiday; the professional may not sew in professional quality. Nothing is said about the quantity of the thread.. A baraita supports Rebbi Joḥanan: The cobblers are stapling on the holiday. If you would say stitch by stitch, that is what they are doing professionally. But we must hold that they sew irregularly. Who is an individual and who is a professional? Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina said, one who matches seams is a professional, but any who does not match seams is an individual¹⁴⁴Babli 10a.. Rebbi Simon said, the Mishnah refers to those who sew pockets¹⁴⁵There are no seams to be matched. R. Yose ben Ḥanina’s criterion is insufficient..

Ḥisqiah said: making a lattice, warp and woof; tightening, either warp or woof. Rebbi Joḥanan said: making a lattice, either warp or woof; tightening, if it is loose he tightens it. Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba said, everybody agrees that making a lattice means warp and woof. Where do they disagree? About tightening. Ḥisqiah said: either warp or woof; Rebbi Joḥanan said: if it is loose he tightens it. Rebbi Yasa instructed Samuel bar Ḥanina that “making a lattice” means warp and woof. We do not know whether this follows Ḥizqiah or it follows Rebbi Ḥiyya bar Abba and everybody’s opinion. Rebbi Abun bar Ḥiyya said before Rebbi Ze`ira: a Mishnah says so that making a lattice means warp and woof, as we have stated there¹⁴⁷Mishnah Kelim 19:1., “when is the rope connected to the bed¹⁴⁸That impurity is transferred from one to the other.? If he plaited three boxes.” Could you say warp without woof or woof without warp? Could one pitch woof and make a lattice?

Rav Hoshaia had flour but he ground wheat¹⁴⁹Even though he did not need new flour for the holiday. It is permitted to grind food on the intermediate days without restriction. Babli 12b.. Rebbi Ze`ira said to Rebbi Jonah<sup>150</sup>Student of R. Ze`ira.: go out and buy us black ones¹⁵¹Traditionally interpreted as a kind of black peas. to pound. He said to him, do we have a holiday grindstone? He was offended by him¹⁵¹Traditionally interpreted as a kind of black peas..
