What Is The Difference Between Pencil Pleat & Deep Pleat Curtains?


Pencil pleats and deep pleats function very much the same, they are sewn in strings that are then “pulled” into pleats to form the traditional heading style.

The main difference is the depth. Pencil pleat is 3” deep and has 3 places to attach your hooks. Deep pleats are 6” deep and it has 6 slots for your hooks.
