Pocket Square question

hi...I just bought a suit and it came with a pocket square

It was pre-folded into the simple rectangular fold. How much of the pocket square should be showing? I was guessing around a quarter inch?

Also, what is your favorite way to fold a pocket square and why?

A quarter of an inch. Also, a simple straight fold is usually best. If you need some pocket squares, buy some from me. Check out my signature.
