The Origami Forum

Hello every one!

I signed up on this website to hopefully learn some more stuff about making origami, as it is quite intresting to me. If I can find someone to help teach me more, that would be awesome because diagrams are harder for me to follow (Im more of a tactile learner). Or if someone else would help learn to understand the diagrams, that would be great too.

I can do some more advanced stuff (Ive done it before) I just need to learn all the technical terms and all that jazz.

I started to learn origami when I was in the second grade. I had a friend whose parents were Japonese, so my friend is what got me into this stuff when she taught me how to make a paper crane.

Good !
Crane is the basic of the origami.
There are several steps you need to learn in order to fold hard diagram:
1. Open sink
2. Closed sink
3. Crimp (how to make a good crimp)
All of those you can search on the internet how to do it
Knowing all of these basic is good to fold from complex diagram.
Happy Folding!!!

Thank you, Multislash,

I will get crackin' :].
