The Ruffler Attachment is used to create perfectly spaced pleats and gathers.
Details

The Ruffler Attachment is used to create perfectly spaced pleats and gathers. It makes uniform pleats at set intervals and can tuck every twelfth stitch, sixth stitch, every stitch or not at all!

 

The SINGER ruffler attachment works best with light to medium weight fabrics. Move the ruffle regulator to determine the frequency of tucks (it can tuck every twelfth stitch, sixth stitch, every stitch or not at all). Turn the adjusting screw to determine how much fabric is pushed into the attachment each time it tucks.

What's Included?

Parts of the Ruffler:

a. Ruffler Regulator—determines the frequency of the tucks
1 = every stitch creates a tuck
6 = every 6th stich creates a tuck
12 = every 12th stitch creates a tuck
• = no tucks are created

b. Adjusting Screw or Indicator—determines the depth of the tucks
(Settings 0-8, with 0 for the least fullness and 8 for the deepest
pleats)

c. Ruffling Blade—forms the gathers or pleats by pushing the fabric to
the needle

d. Separator Blade—bottom plate of the attachment

e. Separator Guides—slots to guide the edge of the fabric

Specifications

To Make a Ruffle or Gather:


1. Remove the regular presser foot and attach the Ruffler Foot - the
fork arm goes around the needle screw clamp then attach to the
shank with the screw. Secure the screw.
  
2. Set the machine for a straight stitch.

 
3. Adjust stitch length. (A shorter stitch length creates pleats that are
closer together.)
 
4. Check that the needle clears the hole in the ruffle attachment.

5. Position the fabric right side up between the ruffling blade and the
separator blade and under the first separator guide.

6. Push the ruffling blade towards the needle.
 
7. Stitch gathers or pleats.
