Butterfly

Designed by Michael G. LaFosse

1 Pre-crease your paper as shown: First fold in half and unfold. Then, fold in the sides. You may experiment with different distances for the sides to be away from the center crease.

2 Turn the paper over.

3 Fold in half, short edge to short edge.

4 Move the top layer of the right half over to the left and flatten the paper. This is called a “squash fold.”

5 Squash-fold the other side to match.

6 Fold up the bottom corner to the middle of the top edge and bring it back down.

7 One at a time, squash-fold the left and right halves of the paper.

8 Squash fold in progress. Watch the “X” and “Y” corners.
