Hi, I'm Marti on behalf of expertvillage.com I'm going to share with you today how to iron a pleated khakis with a cuff attached. Before I get going though let me mention our tools. We need an iron you want a good iron preferably one that has a steam option on it but none the less you want a good iron. One of the things you want to look for in an iron also is the number of steam ducts that you find on the bottom of your iron. The more steam duct the more even and easier your job is at ironing. This is also another great tool that I love to have is a silicon pad it allows me to put my iron face down so I don't have to worry about it getting tipped or knock over. The less of a chance of burning myself or someone else or a carpet. Your ironing board you want a good ironing board it needs to be fairly stable you want to get it set up and adjusted to where it's right below your waist high. I'm going to show you how to use the ironing board today. This nose over here works really well with trying to iron around the waist band and certain parts of the pant.
