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.
