Origami: The Art of Paper Folding [Paperfolding]

It's a squirrel. It's a basket. It's a turban, a penguin, a pink elephant...It's a plain piece of paper, intricately folded and refolded in the ancient Hapaneses art of origami. As a hobby or as a form of relaxation, origami is one of the most delightful pastimes there is. It provides endless hours of entertainment for children, and for adults, a challenging exercise or just a pleasant activity with which to while away the time. The only equipment nedded is a sheep of paper - no paste, scissors, or tape. The figures may be enjoyed for themselves or used as decorations for gift packages, party tables, or Christmas trees. This book contains instruction for more than fifty origami figures. The clear, step-bystep diagrams build the skill you need to create your own original figures.
