v. 14 – Outside this instance, the word מִשְׁבְּצוֹת is limited to description of the priest's ephod and clothing (see  Exod 28:11, 13, 14, 25; 39:6, 13, 16, 18), as "woven in patterns; hence, possibly: = a web of gold yarn used to attach gems to cloth" (SDBH).[1]

  1. ↑ Cf. "chequered (or plaited) work, usually of settings for gems" (BDB); and "gold embroidered cloth" (HALOT).
