Cats in Origami Review & GIVEAWAY

Discover a variety of feline folds inside the pages of Cats in Origami by Nick Robinson. With a little help from his friends, the British origami master demos 20 origami projects with instructions and diagrams. He begins with the easiest models and slowly progresses to the more challenging ones. Each project has a difficulty rating of 1 through 5, with 5 being the hardest. All designs require square paper. Add a pack of 7 x 7" paper and you'll be all set. Though for practicing the more difficult designs larger squares are better. Clear diagram and text instructions are printed on large pages along with photos of the finished model. See the complete table of contents below. So far I've folded the Rear View Cat and the Halloween Cat and am delighted with the results. The 144 page paperback was released April 17, 2019 from Dover PublicationsGet your copy below!
