Crimping board
A flat wooden, fluted board with a corresponding fluted roller.
The linen was laid on the board and the fluted roller was then rolled over it a number of times and the ridges produced in the linen were sewn together, forming the very even and finely gathered finish so often seen in early children's wear.
