What is khadi printing?

khadi print is easily identifiable by the fact that the printing ink stays on the surface of the fabric and does not permeate through to the other side. often light colours like white and metallics like gold and silver are printed using khadi for the way that the colour stand out. the rubbing and washing fastness is poor as the fabric is not really dyed/printed with the khadi colour, instead the colour is stiing on the surface, attached to the fabric by a sort of organic glue.
