Does anyone ELSE (i.e., someone who is not me and thus might have a
spare minute at home sometime before Tuesday) have a copy of the Maureen
Fennell Mazzaoui book "The Italian Cotton Industry in the Later Middle
Ages, 1100-1600". I would hazard a guess that it's mentioned in there.

The Oxford English Dictionary gives -

stay- making.
Perhaps some of these alternate spellings may help.
Best wishes
