To achieve the classic pencil pleat look, evenly pull the cords in the pleat tape at the top of the curtain until the desired width is achieved, then secure the cords. Distribute the gathers uniformly across the curtain width before inserting hooks.

Hang the curtains for 24-48 hours to allow creases to relax naturally. If persistent, you can iron them on a medium setting, using a pressing cloth over the face fabric if preferred, or iron on the reverse side.

Ensure that curtain hooks are inserted evenly into the pencil pleat tape and distributed uniformly across the width of the curtain. Adjust the spacing of the pleats to achieve a consistent and balanced look along your track or pole.

Ensure your curtain track or pole extends adequately beyond the window frame, allowing the curtains to overlap the window edges when closed. Check for any gaps between the curtain top and the track, adjusting hook placement if necessary.

Always follow the care instructions precisely: machine wash on a gentle cycle with appropriate temperature (cold/lukewarm), and line dry. Avoid high heat during washing or drying, which can cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric.
