Pleat to the sett tutorial?

[Tarheel]

Interesting article Luke. I see that the "tabs" are sewn on the red stripes.

Could, while bunching the fabric together to create the pleats, a box pleat be created by gathering and folding in a manner like an accordion? I imagine increasing the number of tabs where the folds would create a sett.

I am open to discussion on this.

Yes, it could be set up to be box pleats or knife pleats to the left or right.

Actually they would be more gathers than pleats, or if your a maker of curtains, perhaps cartridge pleats

I imagine the pull tabs just speeds up the pleating process. I don't believe you use them to create the pleats. I may try it tho.
