Commento su Kelim 27:6
אֵלּוּ נִמְדָּדִין כְּפוּלִין. אַמְפַּלְיָא, וּפְמוֹלִינְיָא, וּמִכְנָסַיִם, וְכוֹבַע, וְכִיס שֶׁל פֻּנְדִּיָּא. וּמַטְלִית שֶׁטְּלָיָהּ עַל הַשָּׂפָה, אִם פְּשׁוּטָה, נִמְדֶּדֶת פְּשׁוּטָה, וְאִם כְּפוּלָה, נִמְדֶּדֶת כְּפוּלָה:
Quando vengono raddoppiati, vengono misurati: pantofole di stoffa, calzoni al ginocchio e pantaloni, un cappello e una cavità [in una cintura che funge da] sacchetto. Per quanto riguarda un pezzo di tessuto che uno ha cucito sull'orlo [del colletto di un indumento], se è [cucito] aperto viene misurato aperto; e se raddoppiato, viene misurato raddoppiato.
Bartenura on Mishnah Kelim
אלו נמדדים כפולים – that it needs the measurement to be from two sides. Since it is their manner to use them from two sides, if the measurement is from one side, it is not effective. Another explanation, that it is measured double, that a cloth in the place of cut, it is the manner that the threads go out from it and it becomes ruined and is easily torn, and it is the manner of sewers to double a bit around the cut and sew. And this is measured double as it has been taught, for after it is doubled, there needs to be enough in order to its measurement, but if there isn’t enough for its measurement, even though that if one would loosen the stitch and stretch it out, there would be enough for its measurement. It is not effective.

Introduction
In yesterday's mishnah we learned that a child's shirt is measured when doubled, meaning that it needs to be three handbreadths square on both sides. Today's mishnah teaches that there are other pieces of clothing that are measured doubled.
