One who took out foodstuffs and placed them on the threshold, whether he [him-self] subsequently returned and took them out or whether someone else took them out, he is exempt, since he did not perform his work at one time. [One who took out] a basket which was full of produce, and placed it on the outer threshold, even though the greater portion of the produce is outside, he is exempt until he takes out the entire basket.

One who takes out, either with his right hand or with his left hand, in his bosom, or on his shoulder, is liable, for such was the [method of] carrying used by the sons of Kehath. [If he carried] backhandedly: with his foot, in his mouth, with his elbow, in his ear, in his hair, in his moneybelt with its opening [hanging] downward, between his moneybelt and his shirt, in the hem of his shirt, in his shoe, or in his sandal, he is exempt, because he did not carry out in a manner of those who carry things out.
