1. Place your paper pattern side down.

2. Fold and unfold along both diagonals.

3. Fold each of the corners into the center and then unfold again.

4. Fold the top corner down again and then fold the bottom corner up to meet the top of your paper to make a triangle.

5. Next you need to crease along the pink dotted line. Fold the paper to meet the edge of the triangle you just made and crease. You should be able to see a crease from a previous fold, I've marked it in the picture above using a bone folder. Fold as far as this crease, no further and unfold your paper.

6. Rotate 90 degrees and repeat steps 4 and 5. Turn and repeat for each corner.

7. Unfold and place your paper pattern side up. Fold in half to make a rectangle, open it out and rotate 180 degrees. Fold in half again to make a cross in the center of your paper.
