• Turban of fine linen. A turban is a type of head covering.
• Decorated caps of fine linen. The "fine linen" (Heb. "shesh") is derived from an Egyptian word and refers to high-quality white linen. The decorated caps were apparently a type of head covering different from the turban.

• Sash of fine twisted linen.It was made of blue and purple and scarlet material and was the work of the weaver (an expert craftsman). This again was likely a weave consisting of dyed wool and linen, like the tent and many other articles. The function of the sash is similar to a belt. Some translations emphasize this by rendering the word as "girdle."

As before, they made these items to the exacting specifications that the Lord had commanded Moses.
