Forming Knife Pleats
Channel: Colleen G Lea - FSBTV

Forming Knife Pleats. Adding pleats to a sewing project is a great way to add a decorative feature and remove unwanted bulk from garments. There are many styles of pleat to choose from and use during the course of your fashion sewing, and each has a particular look and use.

The knife pleat (as demonstrated in this tutorial) can often be found on skirts, and its look and design is used to create many straight folds of fabric, all of which travel and form in one direction.

The knife pleat, especially when pressed, gives a sharp and crisp look.

Unlike the inverted pleat we looked at previously, knife pleats are used for basic gathering purposes.
