Now we invite you to familiarize yourself with such a well-known basic origami scheme as a catamaran. It is quite easy to make this shape, the figure itself, like any other basic one, is an important scheme with which you can add more complex structures. That is why it is very important to know and be able to do it for beginners. In the course of mastering the ancient art, you should meet it more than once, so let's start assembling it.

There are several techniques for folding this figure, but in this article we will show you only one, the most popular and widely known among them. To assemble an origami catamaran, you will need to find paper and carefully follow the five simple steps described for our readers below.

So, study the folding steps, follow the steps indicated in the diagram and repeat everything exactly after us. Take a paper sheet in a square shape.

Catamaran assembly steps:

We divide the paper into 4 lines: diagonally and crosswise in the center.

The corners of the workpiece are wrapped towards the center and unfolded.

The sides also fold towards the middle.

Two folds of the “valley” type are formed.

From the inside we draw out all the corners.

As you can see, there are no complicated steps here, so everything should work out fine for you.

Follow each step of our scheme carefully and carefully so that there are no unironed areas. In general, this figure can be classified as simple, because it really does not have features and difficult folds, and making a mistake here is practically impossible.

However, novice origamists who do not have any experience with paper still sometimes fail to assemble the form, so if one of you has difficulty, question or some kind of snag during assembly, you can leave your message to us at comments on the article, and we will be happy to answer it for you.
