Stencils - Silk Screening

Silk Screening

Silk screening is a style of clothing manufacture, in which an ink is embedded in the cloth of the fabric. The ink is controlled through the use of a stencil, which is placed directly over the shirt. This process can only handle one colour of ink at a time. Therefore, multi colored shirts must be silk screened several times, with each interval taking time to dry.

Famous quotes containing the word silk:

    O bid me mount and sail up there
    Amid the cloudy wrack,
    For Peg and Meg and Paris’ love
    That had so straight a back,
    Are gone away, and some that stay
    Have changed their silk for sack.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
