PENCIL PLEAT TUTORIAL including attaching plastic HOOKS

Please bear with the low technical quality of this tutorial. The pair of ready-made pencil pleat curtains arrived unexpectedly into the studio and I went ahead with this on my own.
There have been so many times over the years that, someone just starting out in their homes, has asked how to hang readymades and when this pair came to me I had to share.
MAIN TIPS:
1. Always tie off the strings in a granny-knot. I do both ends to avoid mishaps.
2. Find somewhere solid to hold one end of the strings, a table corner or door handle or if you have an assistant to stand away from you to keep a firm grip on the strings. The curtain tape is running the whole top of your curtain that could start out at some metres length.
3. Trade Tip: PULL ALL THE STRINGS TAUT before you begin pushing the pleats along. Any slack in the individual strings will make the pleats harder to push along into pleats.
4. Keep pushing the pleats along the strings until the curtain is 'pulled-in' to the size of the curtain pole you are using. Pencil pleat can work at over 2.5 times the pole size. (A 1metre pole could have a 2.5 - 2.8 metre of pencil pleat curtain heading.)
5. When the tape is pulled in to fit the pole the excess string MUST be STOWED away neatly, very often tucked in behind the tape as shown in tutorial. There are a variety of ways to make it look neat but the main thing is that the strings should be LEFT and tied off in such a way as they can be undone later for laundering or if you move house you can loosen up the curtain to fit on a larger window.
6. White plastic hooks are readily available in packs in homestores. These are needed to hold the curtain on the rail or pole. We have a pole here but, if you have a rail then often the heading of the curtain will sit up high enough to cover the rail. In this case insert the plastic hooks along the middle row of the tape. These hook then slot onto the gliders on the rail.
