Quoting%20commentary for Orlah 3:2

הַצּוֹבֵעַ מְלֹא הַסִּיט בִּקְלִפֵּי עָרְלָה, וַאֲרָגוֹ בְבֶגֶד, וְאֵין יָדוּעַ אֵיזֶה הוּא, רַבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר, יִדָּלֵק הַבֶּגֶד. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, יַעֲלֶה בְאֶחָד וּמָאתָיִם:

One who dyes [a thread] the length of <i>m'lo hasit</i> [distance between the splayed thumb and forefinger] with peels of an <i>Orlah</i> tree, and then wove them into a garment, but doesn't know which [thread] it is: Rabbi Meir says, one must burn the garment, and the Sages say, it becomes neutralized in [a pile of] two hundred and one [other such garments].
