Quote - hmmmmmmmm.  i think i see.  i'd have to try it out.  but if the image in my head isn't mistaken, this gives you double-sided pleat,  sort of like a gear?  not a one sided pleat, like a saw?

If Im thinking right :) you could use that meshign method, then instead of movine the edges, simply move a vertex out from the skirt and overlap it with the poly below, then would give you a saw shape instead of a gear.
