A method for ink-jet printing a two-component silicone-based composition onto a textile substrate is presented. The composition includes a first component having at least one silicone polymer and a second component having at least one cross-linking agent. The method includes the following steps: providing a printing system having at least one print head, itself having at least one print nozzle of spraying the two-component silicone-based composition onto the textile substrate, and a device for producing relative movement between the print head and the textile substrate, spraying the first component and the second component onto the textile substrate via the print nozzle cross-linking the silicone polymer by reaction between the first component and the second component so as to form a printed pattern on the textile substrate.

The hole will have a grommet that will be reinforced to withstand the washing and general wear and tear that is placed on a sock and still maintain its general shape and function.
