Bring points 1 and 2 together. Fold in points 3 and 4. Press to crease.

Fold the left-hand flap to the center line. Press to crease. Repeat with the right-hand flap. Flip the napkin over and repeat these folds on the left- and right-hand flaps.

Fold back the left-hand flap; open it and press. Repeat on the right-hand side. Flip the napkin over and repeat the open-and-press motions on both left- and right-hand sides.
