Simple Origami Folds

Description

Paper folding begins with two simple moves, and these seven PDF lessons build everything else from them. You start with materials and paper selection, then learn the valley and mountain folds that almost every model relies on.

From there the lessons progress to the classic boat, simple paper animals, simple paper flowers and a traditional box. A final lesson suggests ways to extend your origami skills. Exercises and reference tables appear throughout. After reading, you should be able to follow a basic folding diagram, choose suitable paper and complete a small set of finished models, which gives you a base for trying more complex designs.

Who it is for: adults new to origami who want to start with simple, achievable models.
