The following is the way in which the first 'concertina' fold is made.
Note:
– The serviette, if correctly fed through the ironer (calender) should have the 'face'
down as it leaves the ironer (calender) with the fold and stitching of the hem seams
uppermost so that the polish is given to the face of the serviette/napkin.
– The first concertina fold, as indicated below, should be with the polished face down.
– All arrows in the following drawings represent folds in the material.

The result should now be a serviette or napkin which is now rectangular with the polished
side uppermost.
The identical three-fold concertina now needs to be completed on the rectangular
serviette except that the fold should be made so that the finished serviette or napkin
has the polished face uppermost and there are no 'dog-ears' showing at the corners.
