Text | A pretty basket with a handle, all in a single sheet of paper. 1. Fold a preliminary base. Hold it with the closed tip down. 2. Form a valley fold by bringing the upper tip of the front flap up and down over the closed tip. Mark the fold well. Be careful of the junctions with the two left and right corners. A hinge fold connects these two corners. 3. Flip the fold from right to left. 4. Form a valley fold by bringing the upper tip of the front flap up and down over the closed tip. Mark the fold well. We now have a square shape arranged in a diamond shape. The lower half is composed of a front triangular flap of single thickness, which hides a thick triangular tip, which itself hides a rear triangular flap of single thickness. The top of the form is composed of two left and right triangular flaps of double thickness. 5. Locate the middle of the hinge fold connecting the left and right middle corners. One way to do this is to follow, starting from the upper point of the fold, the vertical separation between the two upper triangular flaps. We go down along this separation until we meet the upper edge of the lower triangular flap. 6. Form a valley fold by bringing the lower point of the front flap from bottom to top on the midpoint that you have just identified. Mark the fold clearly, which must be perfectly parallel to the horizontal fold passing through the midpoint. We transformed the triangular flap into a trapezoid-shaped flap, carrying a small triangular flap. The trapezoid-shaped flap is delimited at the bottom by a small horizontal hinge fold and, at the top, by a long hinge fold. These two folds are connected to each other by two oblique folds. 7. Bring, using a valley fold from bottom to top, the lower edge of the trapezoid to its upper edge. Mark the fold well. Be careful that the small triangular flap remains in place when folding. 8. Undo the two folds you just made to return to the original triangular flap. Starting from the tip of the triangular flap and going up towards its upper edge, we can feel a mountain fold then two valley folds parallel to each other. 9. By making three successive valley folds using the preparation folds present on the triangle, fold it into a thick strip. The strip has a trapezoidal shape, thickness 4 in its center and single thickness at the ends. It pivots freely around the hinge fold which forms its upper edge. 10. Flip the fold from right to left. 11. Apply the folds described from [step 6] to [step 9] to the front triangular flap. The general shape of the fold is a square placed on a closed tip. Towards the top, there are two points separated by a vertical slit which stops where it meets the upper edge of a thick strip. We can see that there are four triangular flaps, two upper and two lower, which pivot around the vertical median axis. 12. Rotate the upper left flap towards the right so that its free tip comes onto the middle tip of the right upper flap. You get a square smooth flap. 13. Flip the fold from right to left. 14. Rotate the upper left flap towards the right so that its free tip comes onto the middle tip of the right upper flap. You get a square smooth flap. 15. Forming an oblique valley fold, bring, from left to right, the upper left side of the square onto the middle valley fold. Mark the fold well. We form a rectangle triangle of which only the lower right vertex is free. 16. By forming an oblique valley fold, bring, from right to left, the lower edge of the triangle constructed in [step 14] on the left edge of the same triangle. Mark the fold well. The fold passes through the lower left vertex of the triangle and brings the lower right corner to the left side. Following the two folds that we have just made, we obtain a triangular flap whose left side is a long hinge fold starting from the upper point of the fold. This flap has a small triangular flap. The set of two triangles is linked to a final flap of simple thickness, the remainder of the large initial flap. 17. Rotate the triangle around the hinge fold, so as to bring it behind the single thickness flap which carries it. 18. Repeat the sequence of folds from [step 15] to [step 17] by applying them to the right flap. The folding now consists, towards the bottom, of a closed point, which is continued upwards by a sharp point which partially hides two flaps of simple thickness. 19. Flip the fold from right to left. 20. Apply the folds described from [step 15] to [step 17] on the two single thickness triangular flaps. The fold now has a general kite shape, with one broad, closed point at the bottom and two sharp points at the top. The two sharp points overlap. The upper acute point carries two triangular flaps of complex structure. Each triangular flap is linked to the fold by a long hinge fold which forms one side. A second side starts from the upper point and goes down along the vertical valley fold which starts from this point and joins the thick point. Thus, a kind of slot separates the two sides of the two triangles starting from the upper point. Going down from the upper point, this lunge stops at a point which will be used for the next step. 21. Form a horizontal valley fold over the entire thickness of the fold by bringing the lower point from bottom to top with a horizontal fold passing by the two terminal points of the [step 20]. Mark the fold well. Unfold. It is a preparatory fold which is used to demarcate the bottom of the basket. 22. Transform the valley fold that we have just made into a mountain fold. Mark the fold, unfold. Be careful that the mountain fold exactly replaces the initial valley fold. 23. Open the basket, by spreading the sides of the future basket and pressing on the wide lower tip until the square bottom appears. Take care that the two sharp points do not come undone in the process. The bottom must be very flat. The two sharp points now stand vertically, on either side of a square box. Finishing the basket handle The simplest way is to bring the two tips on top of each other over a small portion and glue the two ends together. If we want to stay in the origami spirit, we will apply the following steps. 24. Bring the two sharp points on top of each other, over a portion of approximately 1 cm. The length of the common portion depends on the size of the sheet of paper. 1 cm corresponds to a sheet of 20 cm side. 25. Bring, through a valley fold from the bottom to the top, keeping them well glued to each other, the two upper points on the valley fold which leaves them. We obtain a triangle with a vertex facing down. This vertex is formed by the two points stuck on top of each other. The top of the triangle is formed by the horizontal hinge fold that we have just created. 26. Bring, through a valley fold from top to bottom, keeping them well glued to each other, the two points of the triangle on the middle of the horizontal hinge fold. We thus transformed the two initial points into a fold formed by a Small triangle pointing upwards, carried by a 4-sided flap, itself linked to the folding itself. 27. Separate the two ends from each other, keeping the folds. We have a front point and a rear point, each ending with an identical fold. The front point has a slit on the front. 28. Open the slot on the front flap slightly. 29. Using the first fold from the top of the point, make a downward valley fold, so as to bring the point to the front side. The tip is now finished with a horizontal hinge fold. 30. Using the first fold from the horizontal top of the point, make a downward valley fold, so as to bring the point to the front side. The tip was folded back on itself. 31. Bring the pointed end of the rear handle under the fold of the front handle. We use the first horizontal preparation fold. We form a kind of hook which slips under the fold. 32. Close the slot around the front handle - rear tip fold assembly. The two handles become one, and the basket is completely finished. Very useful, isnt'it? |
