I guess I just can't visualize it properly... if it is pleated to the red stripe, and the red stripe lies in a dark field only, then won't that dark field be the only one visible in the pleats, and it won't make a noticeable horizontal pattern (dark/dark)??

....As opposed to being pleated to the double white stripes, which lie in dark and green fields, so both of those would show in the pleats, forming a horizontal pattern of dark/green as well??
