Commentary for Yoma 143:2

ונילף משוליו ורמוניו מה להלן שמונה אף כאן שמונה דנין כלי מכלי ואין דנין כלי מתכשיט כלי

But let us infer from the skirt and the pomegranates, just as there it was eightfold thus also here eightfold? - One may infer for one garment from another, but one may not infer for a garment from an adornment to a garment. On the contrary! One may infer concerning a matter from the matter itself,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Skirt and pomegranates are part of the upper garment, hence an inference from them appears more legitimate.');">⁴</span> but one may not infer for a thing from something outside thereof.
