Abstract
This disclosure relates to a composite textile that can be sustainable, as well as methods and systems for constructing the composite textile and recollecting and harvesting excess material (e.g., remnants). In at least some examples, a first pattern piece is cut from a first material layer, and a second pattern piece is cut from a second material layer. In addition, the first pattern piece can be separated from the first material layer, which can leave a first remnant, and the second pattern piece can be separated from the second material layer, which can leave a second remnant. Once separated, the first pattern piece can be stacked atop the second pattern piece, and the stacked pattern pieces can be entangled to form a composite pattern piece. The remnant associated with the first material layer can be separated from the remnant associated with the second material layer and reused.
