Arabic garb patterns

Rosalind plops down on a bench, calls for a goblet of mulled wine, takes a
sip, and asks the crowd at the tavern - "Good my lords, has anyofe seen a
fine merchant from Andalusia or the realms of Sal-a-din? My friend Ciaran
wishes to travel in those parts, and wants me to sew some fine clothing. I
have yards of lovely material , bought from an Arabic merchant at the War
(and added to the other yards, and yards, and yards, and...but that is
another story) but no patterns or directions to make it. If anyofe is
willing to impart to me the secrets of such clothing, I would be very
grateful. Else he'll have to be a Celt playing a dombek, which looks not
right,  and thus makes him a member of the Celtic Jihad (but that also is
another story). Milord, bring me another glass as well, and I'll use it as
an excuse to hide from the tyranny of those yards calling to be sewn in time
for Coronation."
