Default fading

Is it possible to do designs that fade with screen printing? I cant see it being possible, since the ink is going through a screen.

You do it with half-tones, so it's more of an optical illusion that fools the eyes into thinking the colour fades, rather than actually getting solidly lighter. Works well though.
