A short dictionary entry defining 'resist' in dyeing: a material applied to cotton cloth to keep a mordant or dye from fixing in patterned areas. It distinguishes mechanical resists (fat, paste) from chemical resists, and describes calico-dyeing with a copper resist in an indigo vat, the china blue process, and the discharge process for black, red or chocolate with white.
