EASY · TRADITIONAL MODEL
Double boat
A traditional model that already appears in a French magazine of 1832: you bring the corners to the centre, turn the paper over, crease it with more folds and unfold them, push the points together in the centre to make a flat windmill, turn two of its blades over and fold everything in half behind. It ends flat, with a point on each side.

The first fold and the steps that follow
Here you see the first 2 steps; the other 28 continue in the app.
Get your paper ready.
Lay a square sheet down as a diamond, with one corner pointing up and one towards you. If one side is coloured, put it face down and the white side face up.
Use smooth, properly square paper: in the next folds the corners have to reach the centre exactly.
Bring the top corner to the centre.
Fold the top corner of the diamond towards you, onto the centre. The fold is horizontal and runs through the middle of the two upper edges.
Line up the corner with the centre before pressing the fold.
Bring the right corner to the centre.
