And Now, Vince's Uncle Roberto With How To Fold a Cloth Napkin With a Waterfall Pleat
Be sure to use a crisp, starched napkin for best results. Start with a napkin laid flat. Bring the bottom long edge of the napkin up to the top edge to fold the napkin in half lengthwise. Fold the left side over to the right. Position the napkin in a diamond shape with the open points at the top. Bring the first layer down to the bottom point. Crease the fold. Accordion-pleat the layer you just folded down to the crease line. Fold the napkin in half to form a triangle. Turn the napkin so the folded line is at the bottom. Tuck the side points into each other in the back. Stand the finished napkin on a plate, and fan the pleats outwards.
And since I'm on the subject, if you're ever riding in the back of my limo, please don't throw my cloth napkins in the little trash can. Those things are expensive, and it's taken me a while to find cranberry ones to match the interior. Don't be an asshole.
