ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a decorative ribbon, including the steps of gathering an elongate ribbon, stitching the ribbon along the length thereof while gathered to hold the ribbon in the gathered condition and heat setting the ribbon while held in the gathered condition by the stitches to permanently set the ribbon itself into the gathered condition. A variation in the appearance of the ribbon is achieved by winding the gathered ribbon onto a mandrel before heat setting the ribbon, heat setting the ribbon while the ribbon is wound onto the mandrel to place an axially repeating permanent twist into the ribbon, and removing the heat set ribbon from the mandrel.
