“Pokeori” (ポケオリ) in Japanese is a combination of “poke” and “ori.” “Poke” refers to a pocket or something small and compact, while “ori” means to fold or weave. So, “pokeori” in English can be translated as “pocket weaving” or “miniature weaving.” It typically refers to small-scale weaving projects or crafts.
