Day 28: Layer Cake Fold
The layer cake fold is a mix between the Presidential Fold and the 4-Stairs Fold. It is another fold that requires the use of two pocket squares. In the photo above I decided to use a paisley pocket square in reds, black, and gray in combination with a solid red pocket square. Because 2 pocket squares can be a bit bulky in your breast pocket, I suggest you use smaller squares that are 10-13 inches squares in size. Here is how you create the “Layer Cake” fold:
Two Tip Up Pocket Square Fold Step-by-Step:
Lay both pocket squares flat.
Fold both pocket squares in half to creat two separate rectangles.
Now lay one pocket square over the other. The below pocket square should be visible at the top. This creates the first layer.
Now create another layer by folding the other side over at a slight angle.
To create the final layer fold over the opposite side again at a slight angle.
Because most pocket squares will still eb too wide to fit into your breast pocket, fold enough of each side back so that the width fits your breast pocket.
As a final step, carefully tug the fold into your breast pocket.
