Bandhani is a type of tie-dye practiced mainly in the states of
Rajasthan and Gujarat, India. The term bandhani is derived from the
Sanskrit word banda ("to tie").
Bandhani is also known as Bandhej or Tie Dye or Bandhni or Bandana,
etc. as per the regional pronunciation.
Bandhani work involves tying and dyeing of pieces of cotton or silk
cloth, The main colours used in Bandhani are yellow, red, green,
blue and black. Bandhani work, after the processing is over,
results into a variety of symbols including, dots, squares, waves
and strips. Bandhani pieces can be dyed by natural and artificial
colors.
The main colours used in Bandhani are natural. In fact all colours
in bandhani are dark, no light color is used, and the background is
mostly in black / red cloth.
The Bandhani work has been exclusively carried out by the hand
work. A meter length of cloth can have millions of tiny knots known
as "Bheendi" in the local language. Four bheendis are known as a
"Kadi". These knots form a design once opened after dyeing in
bright colors.

Silk", "Laheria", "Batik Suit", "Chakari" etc.
