The clearer the folding method of paper cranes, the better the "picture"

Step 1: First, prepare a square piece of paper. Fold in half up and down, fold in half on the left and right sides respectively, unfold and leave creases.

Step two, turn over. The four corners are folded in half and spread diagonally to form zigzag creases.

The third step is to clamp two adjacent edges in a square crease and fold them together.

Step 4, clamp two adjacent edges in opposite square creases and fold them together. This forms a double square.

Step 5, fold one side of the bifurcated double square toward the center line and align it.

Step 6, the other three sides are operated in the same way, and they are all folded to the center line for alignment.

Step 7, turn the vertex angle over along the sides of two triangles.

Step 8, unfold to form a crease as shown in the figure.

Step 9: Fold the lower corner upwards, and then press the crease in the middle.

Step 10: Fold four sides inward along the crease to form this shape.

Step 1 1, operate the back in the same way (unfold first, turn the lower corner upward, then press the middle crease and fold the four edges inward).

Step 12: Fold the four corners on both sides to the center point like this.

Step 13: Four sides are exchanged in pairs (front, the left side is folded in half and aligned to the right. On the back, one edge of the right side turns to the left and is aligned. )

Step 14: Fold the two corners on the lower side of the front and back respectively, and align with the corners on the upper side.

Step 15. Then, the four sides of both sides are exchanged in pairs.

Step 16: Hold the left and right vertex angles and pull them down to form the wings of the paper crane. Pull the bulge in the middle. As shown in the figure.

Step 17: Fold a small part of the top corner inward to form the head and mouth of the paper crane. Adjust the shape of the wings a little, and the beautiful paper crane will fold up, very beautiful. When pulling the wings in the last step, you don't need to use too much force to avoid tearing the paper. You just need to highlight the middle part.
