Japanese patent publication JP2004-232161 (published 19 Aug 2004) by Matsuura Yoshimi describing a saki-ori (torn-cloth weaving) method for turning a memorial garment into new cloth while keeping its shape and pattern. The garment is cut into thin ribbons that are woven as weft at positions matching the garment's outline, together with ribbons of other cloth, on a hand loom; variants add a support yarn, substitute yarn for the surrounding ribbons, or use a replica garment. The scan includes an English esp@cenet abstract page, the Japanese specification with claims and description, and seven patent figures comparing the new method with conventional saki-ori.
