Have you seen the piece of blue merino? Well, it wasn't enough, so I had to get ten more yards.

Measurement (Historical): A "vara" is also an old Spanish unit of length (roughly a yard,
meters or
feet).

Le texte parle de "pieza", je pensais donc qu'il s'agissait d'un coupon de lainage.
De nos jours quand on voit "merinos on pense laine, en vrac, en pelotes.
