Help!

I would like to get some help with this. I thought bringing up this old thread would be better than starting a new one. I just purchased a B&S casual and I am having this pleat flipping problem. I realized it is just as Barb described. Min is pressed parallel to a tartan stripe. I am not sure how to steam out the original and press in a new one. I have never steamed anything before. Could someone give me some more details about this?
