How to fold an origami classic goldfish

The same band as the pig: edges to the middle and turn over. The hidden flaps swing out at one end as a forked tail, and the other end folds to a point.

You need: 1 square sheet, orange on one side and white on the other. Easy, 4 steps, about 4 minutes.

Steps

  1. Edges to the middle. Fold the top and bottom edges to the middle line.
  2. Turn it over. Flip the band over from left to right.
  3. Fan out the tail. At the right end, fold each hidden flap behind on a slant from the corner, so one fin pokes up and one pokes down.
  4. Point the head. Fold the two left corners behind to make a rounded point.

Blub blub!

Draw a big round eye and a smile near the pointed end.
