The pocket fold is sometimes called a basic silverware pouch or single pocket. It is simple and elegant and just about as traditional as you can get.

Ingredients
Square napkins
Instructions
Fold the napkin in half and place the open end facing you.
Fold the napkin into quarters.
Place the napkin so the open corner is the upper left. Fold the top layer in half diagonally and press it down.
Turn the napkin over so that the open corner is now facing to the upper right. Fold the right-side back about 1/3 of the way and smooth.
Fold the left-side back also about 1/3 of the way and tuck the corner into the little pocket to secure. Smooth to flatten.
Flip the napkin over and insert your silverware.
