Early C17th doublets had short 'tabs' below the waist that became longer with changing fashion, and then disappeared entirely around mid-century, allowing the billowy shirt to show between the doublet and breeches. The long-reigning fashionable man's costume of doublet, hose, and cloak disappeared for good after Charles II introduced the new suit of vest and 'tunick' or coat in 1666 (A.

The first example, dating from 1663, concerns the salvage of a ship with 380 dried elk skins near the city of Rouen. The ship and captain were from Rouen and the skins were loaded for the Amsterdam merchant Abraham Chapman, probably destined for the city of Amsterdam.<ref>[https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/inventaris/5075.nl.html#A33020000020 Stadsarchief Amsterdam, Archief van de Amsterdamse notarissen (5075) inv. nr 2102A, p25, 1 februari 1663], accessed 05/02/2018</ref> The second example is a notarial deed from 1684 about the Dutch ship ''Gouden Krui'' that stranded on the way from from Arkhangelsk to Amsterdam, with amongst other thing 'eland huiden' (elk skins).<ref>[https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/inventaris/5075.nl.html#NOTA00349000313 'Wedue Hendrick Teesingh en compagnie attestatie, den 18 December anno 1684' in Amsterdam City Archives/Stadsarchief Amsterdam, Archief van de Amsterdamse notarissen (5075) inv. nr 5242A], accessed 05/02/2018</ref> Dutch curator, researcher and author [https://twitter.com/menno_jonker Menno Jonker] notes that elk skins were used in C17th clothing, giving the example of the use of the skin for "the so called 'kolder', a yellow sleeveless jacket - worn by militiamen".<ref>[http://www.museumkijker.nl/samen-kijken-vijf-jaar-kunstschouwen-in-amsterdam-museum/ 'Vijf jaar kunstschouwen in Amsterdam Museum: van kolders tot kousenpronk', Museumkijker, web resource], accessed 05/02/2018</ref> Costume researcher Paula Marmor notes that both ox hide ("buffalo") and elk hide were used in the making of buff(e) coats or 'kolder'.

The species grown in Europe was ''Rubia tinctorum'' or common madder. Madder was grown in England, but was also imported in quantity to serve the textile trade. Eric Kerridge calls it "next to woad, the commonest dye stuff" (''Textile Manufactures in Early Modern England'', page 167<ref>Eric Kerridge: ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=YzS8AAAAIAAJ&q=madder&f=false#v=snippet&q=madder&f=false Textile Manufactures in Early Modern England]'', Manchester: Manchester University Press. ISBN 9780719026324, 1985</ref>). With various mordants, madder produces a range of reds, oranges, and roses; together with woad, it produces purples and murreys; and in other combinations it is a component of a wide range of colours including blacks, browns, and tawnies. Madder remained an important commercial crop until the introduction of aniline dyes in the C.19th.

Hansen adds that the "crose and crame" pattern would have been in the weave and most probably in the complicated damask technique. <u>Colin Greenstreet</u> had suggested  that "rose and crame worke" might refer to "rose design embroidery and macramé lace or fringe of some type", citing Sylvia's Book of Macramé Lace (London & New York, 1882), which refer specifically to a "course holland towel, embroidered with coloured cotton and white thread, and finished off at each end with knotted fringe".<ref>[https://archive.org/stream/sylviasbookofmac00lond#page/366/mode/2up Sylvia's Book of Macramé Lace (London & New York, date unclear), p.367]</ref> <u>[https://twitter.com/Hollie_Babbitt M.J. Logue]</u> is unconvinced of this explanation, arguing that macramé was only introduced to England into the court of Queen Mary in the late C17th. However, the above mentioned napkins, if with macramé fringe, could have been imported from Italy, or elsewhere. They appear to have belonged to Elizabeth Ashburnham, the third wife of wealthy London merchant Sir John Jacob, who survived Jacob's death. Logue also argues that "worke" was a common term for a weave, which is consistent with Viveka Hansen's expert opinion. Logue also notes that "'crame' apparently means bought from a pedlar, usually a Scots expression" and that "Sir John Sene (1681) says 'Ane pedder is called ane merchand or cremer, quha beirs ane pack or creame upon his back'" (De verborum significatione).

Norwich Stuffs were light-weight worsteds, made using long stapled wool which was combed to align the fibres - thus resulting in a smooth worsted yarn. Other fibres, particularly silk, were mixed with the worsted in order to add interest. Norwich master weavers were very skilled at making slight variations in the weave of the fabrics so that each could be promoted as a 'new' product. The main characteristic of Norwich Stuffs was their sheer variety - 'of infinite varietie and difference of Sortes, Figures, coullours and prices' (Priestley, ''Textile History,'' Volume 16, p.184). In order to try and avoid imitation, Norwich Stuffs were recognized by a Parliamentary Ordinance in November 1650: ''An Act for regulating the making of Stuffs in Norfolk and Norwich''.<ref>"November 1650: An Act for regulating the making of Stuffs in Norfolk and Norwich."

Bruges produced what the English called 'satin of Bridges', which usually had a linen warp and silk fill or weft. "Rijssel, Lannoy and Armentieres also made Bridges or similar silk and linen satins" and later "turned their attention" to half-worsteds or satins with linen warps and fills of "tops" (rough wool)(E. Kerridge, ''Textile Manufactures in Early Modern England,'' p. 47<ref>Eric Kerridge: ''Textile Manufactures in Early Modern England''. Manchester: Manchester University Press. ISBN 9780719026324, 1985</ref>). Norwich Russells were similar satin weaves made originally entirely of worsted yarn, but they could be made of any fibre. "Rijssel and other Continental towns had previously made ''satins renversis'' or ''reveches'' and the [Norwich] Russells Company copied these in worsted." Called in England 'reverses', these "were figured satins with damask effects" made by reversing the weave to bring the matte twill finish to the right side (Kerridge, p. 48). "An Act for regulating the making of Stuffs in Norfolk and Norwich" of November 1650 specifically excepts from its jurisdiction "such Stuffs as are under the Regulation of the Wardens, and Fellowship of the Mystery of Russel Sattins, Sattins Reverses, and Fustian of Norwich making, within the said City of Norwich".<ref>"November 1650: An Act for regulating the making of Stuffs in Norfolk and Norwich."

Turkey work was used for table and cupboard carpets, cushions, and especially for sets of chair seats and backs.  Designs originally imitated imported Turkey carpets, but later reflected the geometric floral patterns fashionable for other types of C17th needlework. Kerridge (1985) lists "'Turkey work' pile carpets" being made "in Windsor in 1553, in Norwich in 1583, in York in 1595, and in Bradford in 1639" (E.

Don identifies multiple common place names for the herb, including "Dyer's-weed, yellow-weed, weld, woud, woold and wild woad", and also "Dyers'-woold". He states "Dyers formerly made considerable use of this plant; for it affords a most beautiful yellow dye for cotton, woollen, silk, and linen. Blue cloths are dipped in a decoction of it in order to become green...The entire plant when it is about flowering is pulled up for the use of the dyers, who employ it both fresh and dried." Don distinguishes "Reseda Luteola" , or "Dyer's-Woold", from Woad or Indigo.<ref>[https://books.google.ca/books?id=sdpBAQAAMAAJ&lpg=PA288&ots=7kmtuQxhP2&pg=PA288#v=onepage&q&f=false George Don, A General History of the Dichlamydeous Plants, (London, 1831), p.288], accessed 11/01/2018</ref>; Woad ('Isatis tinctoria') is an indigo dye-bearing plant of Assyria and the Levant, grown extensively in the past in Northern Europe.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_dyeing_terms 'Glossary of dyeing terms', Wikipedia entry, online webresource]. accessed 13/01/2018</ref> SECONDARY SOURCES: (1) 'Reseda Luteola', in George Don, A General History of the Dichlamydeous Plants, (London, 1831), pp. 287-288<ref>[https://books.google.ca/books?id=sdpBAQAAMAAJ&lpg=PA288&ots=7kmtuQxhP2&pg=PA288#v=onepage&q&f=false 'Reseda Luteola', in George Don, A General History of the Dichlamydeous Plants, (London, 1831), pp. 287-288], accessed 13/01/2018</ref> (2) 'Weld (''Reseda luteola''), in Wild Colours - Weld Dye Plants, online web resource<ref>[http://www.wildcolours.co.uk/html/weld.html 'Weld (''Reseda luteola''), in Wild Colours - Weld Dye Plants, online web resource], accessed 12/01/2018</ref> (3) 'Isatis tinctoria' (also called woad, dyer's woad, or glastum), Wikipedia entry<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isatis_tinctoria 'Isatis tinctoria (also called woad, dyer's woad, or glastum), Wikipedia entry], accessed 13/01/2018</ref> (4) 'Glossary of dyeing terms', Wikipedia entry, online webresource<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_dyeing_terms 'Glossary of dyeing terms', Wikipedia entry, online webresource]. accessed 13/01/2018</ref>
