RUFFLER
Ruffling
Remove the presser foot and attach the ruf-
fler in its place, connecting the arm with the
needle clamp, as shown in Fig. 29.
The ruffler can be adjusted to make a gather
or plait either at every stitch or once in every
five stitches as the operator may choose.
To make a ruffle with a gather or plait at
every stitch see that the adjusting lever (A,
Fig. 29) of the ruffling is at its lowest point.
Place the material to be ruffled between the
lower or separator blade and the ruffling
blade, draw the material slightly back of the
needle, lower the presser bar and proceed to
sew.
FIG. 29
To make a finer gather shorten the stroke of
the ruffling blade by turning the regulating
thumb screw (B. Fig. 29) over to the left, also
shorten the stitch. To make a fuller gather or
plait lengthen the stroke of the arm by turning
the regulating thumb screw (B. Fig. 29) over
to the right, also lengthen the stitch. By vary-
ing these adjustments many pleasing vari-
eties of work can be accomplished.
