I have , and still have problems with making a nice looking knife pleat taper from waist to fell. Could someone please provide a couple of close up photos of how the pleat is narrowed from the fell to the waist. I have read everythign I can and have several books but it appears everyone else in the world understands BUT me. Please do not ask me to experiment as I already have tried to pin it up before sewing and it looks like hell as well as not very tapered to boot. Please note that I was carefully taught as a child that if at first you don't succede, let someone competent do the task. It is for this reason, I need to see clearly how to accompolish this task. For this reason, I MUST know in advance how to do something before I can do it.
Appreciate any help.
