The opening of the robe was turned inward like the opening around a coat of armor, with a border all around the opening so that it did not tear.

Rashi
לתת על המצנפת מלמעלה. ועל ידי הפתילים היה מושיבן על המצנפת כמין כתר, ואי אפשר לומר הציץ על המצנפת, שהרי בשחיטת קדשים שנינו (זבחים יט.:), שערו היה נראה בין ציץ למצנפת ששם מניח תפילין, והציץ היה נתון על המצח, הרי המצנפת למעלה והציץ למטה, ומהו על המצנפת מלמעלה. ועוד הקשיתי בה, כאן הוא אומר ויתנו עליו פתיל תכלת, ובענין הצוואה הוא אומר וְשַׂמְתָּ אֹתֹו עַל פְּתִיל תְּכֵלָת (שמות כח, לז). ואומר אני, פתיל תכלת זה חוטין הן, לקשרו בהן במצנפת, לפי שהציץ אינו אלא מאוזן לאוזן ובמה יקשרנו במצחו, והיו קבועין בו חוטי תכלת לשני ראשיו ובאמצעיתו, שבהן קושרו ותולהו במצנפת כשהוא בראשו, ושני חוטין היו בכל קצה וקצה, אחת ממעל ואחת מתחת לצד מצחו, וכן באמצעו, שכך הוא נוח לקשור, ואין דרך קשירה בפחות משני חוטין, לכך נאמר על פתיל תכלת, ועליו פתיל תכלת, וקושר ראשיהם השנים כולם יחד מאחוריו למול ערפו, ומושיבו על המצנפת. ואל תתמה שלא נאמר פתילי תכלת, הואיל ומרובין הן, שהרי מצינו בחשן ואפוד וַיִּרְכְּסוּ אֶת הַחשֶׁן וגו', ועל כרחך פחות משנים לא היו, שהרי בשתי קצות החשן היו ב' טבעות החשן, ובב' כתפות האפוד היו ב' טבעות האפוד שכנגדן, ולפי דרך קשירה ד' חוטין היו, ומכל מקום פחות משנים אי אפשר:
To fasten it to the turban from above — by means of the threads he set it onto the turban, as a sort of crown. It is impossible to say [however] that the צִיץ [proper] was on the turban for in Tractate Shechitas Kodoshim (Zevachim) we have learned that his hair was visible between the צִיץ and the turban which was where he wore his tefillin and the צִיץ was placed on the forehead. Thus you see that the turban was high up and the צִיץ lower down. Then what is the explanation of: “turban from above”? Another question that I have posed in this matter: Here it states, “They put (fastened) on it a greenish-blue wool cord,” and in the section where the command is given it states: “place it on a greenish-blue cord.” [To solve these seeming contradictions] I say: This greenish-blue wool thread is actually strands with which to attach it (the צִיץ) to the turban. For the צִיץ only runs from ear to ear and how is it to be fastened to his forehead? There were strands of greenish-blue wool inserted into it at its two ends and at its middle by means of which he ties it and hangs it from the turban when it is on his head. There were two strands at each end (of the צִיץ) one on the outer side and one underneath towards his forehead and likewise at its middle for this makes it easier to tie and it is not usual to tie something with less than two strands. This is the reason it says: “on [a] greenish-blue thread,” and “on it [the צִיץ] [was a] greenish-blue thread.” He now ties the two ends of each of all [the threads] together, behind him opposite his neck, and now places it on the turban. Do not wonder that it does not say: “threads of greenish-blue wool” since there were many, for we find [a similar syntax] regarding the breastplate and the eiphod: “They shall fasten the breastplate, etc.” and you are certainly forced to admit that there were no less than two [strands] for at the two corners of the breastplate there were the two rings of the breastplate and in the two shoulder-straps of the eiphod were the two rings of the eiphod opposite them (i.e., the rings of the breastplate). And the way it (the breastplate) was tied there were four strands. But under no circumstances could there have been less than two.
וַתֵּכֶל כׇּל־עֲבֹדַת מִשְׁכַּן אֹהֶל מוֹעֵד וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהֹוָה אֶת־מֹשֶׁה כֵּן עָשֽׂוּ׃ {פ}
Thus was completed all the work of the mishkon of the Tent of Meeting. B’nei Yisrael did everything just as Adonoy commanded Moshe, so they did.

Rashi
ויעשו בני ישראל. את המלאכה ככל אשר צוה ה' וגו':
B’nei Yisrael did — the work, according to all that God commanded, etc.
ואת פארי המגבעות. תפארת המגבעות, המגבעות המפוארות:
And the splendor of the fine linen turban-hats. [פַּאֲרֵי הַמִּגְבָּעוֹת is the same as] תִּפְאֶרֶת הַמִּגְבָּעוֹת — “the splendor of the turbans” [meaning:] the splendid turbans.
