About Origami Penguin

Origami Penguin started as a simple idea: make paper folding easy to learn, without hunting through confusing diagrams or sitting through long videos. Our penguin tutorial was the first project we published. It is currently under review for inconsistent directions; beginners should start with our guide to paper choice and folding terms.

Since then, we've grown into a small library of step-by-step tutorials, a beginner's guide covering paper types and folding terminology, and a running blog of tips, history, and buying guides for anyone getting deeper into the hobby.
