Contextual Overview
5Anything of a man is not on a woman, nor does a man put on the garment of a woman, for anyone doing these [is] an abomination [to] your God YHWH. 6When a bird's nest comes before you in the way, in any tree, or on the earth, [with] brood or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the brood or on the eggs, you do not take the mother with the young ones; 7you certainly send the mother away, and take the young ones for yourself, so that it is well with you and you have prolonged days. 8When you build a new house, then you have made a parapet for your roof, and you do not put blood on your house when one falls from it. 9You do not sow your vineyard [with] two kinds [of seed], lest the fullness of the seed which you sow and the increase of the vineyard be separated. 10You do not plow with an ox and with a donkey together. 11You do not put on mixed material, wool and linens together.12You make fringes for yourself on the four skirts of your covering with which you cover [yourself].

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts,.... The Jews say nothing is forbidden under the name of sorts but what is spun and wove, as it is said, "thou shalt not wear sheatnez", a thing that is carded, spun, and wove l; which Ainsworth translates "linsie woolsie", and is explained by what follows: as "of woollen and linen together"; of which :-, whereas Josephus m observes, this was granted to the priests only to wear such garments. Bochart n affirms it to be false; but that great man is mistaken; the blue, purple, and scarlet, in the priests' garments, were no other than dyed wool; and it is a sentiment in general received by the Jews, that the priests wore no other but woollen and linen in their service; see the note on the above place; otherwise this law is so strictly observed, as not, to sew a woollen garment with linen thread, and so on the contrary o.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Compare the marginal reference. The prohibition of Deuteronomy 22:10 was also dictated by humanity. The ox and the donkey being of such different size and strength, it would be cruel to the latter to yoke them together. These two animals are named as being those ordinarily employed in agriculture; compare Isaiah 32:20.
