    @EVILKIMEVIL 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is so amazing - thank you so much! I’d love to see how the hooks go in though, because the premade ones I’ve got fold over at the top 10cm before pleating which creates something for the bottom of the hook to slide under. I don’t understand what it slides under on these. Halp
