Katazome 

Katazome (型染め) – a traditional Japanese technique of applying patterns to fabrics, similar to batik. It is based on the use of katagami templates and the rice paste, which prevents the penetration of a dye during dying. Katagami, produced from the hand-made washi paper reinforced with lacquer and the kakishibu juice (the persimmon fruit) allows obtaining intricate patterns on a large surface of a fabric. One of the regions that are famous for this technique is Hamamatsu, close to the Mount Fuji.
