47 FOLDING HAT

24-10-2023
Another attempt at origami. I made this hat because I thought it was fun and also felt I could experience learning more about origami.

Uncomplicated but repetitive creases that take a lot of time. But the difficulty is when folding it up to turn it into a hat, and when putting it away at the end, which requires little by little folding the creases in the right direction, and avoiding cracking the paper. It did take a long time, and I wanted to give up countless times because I couldn't find the shape of the hat, it didn't have a three-dimensional look, and there were just too many creases. I even drew a lot of auxiliary lines to make it clearer.

Luckily it held out in the end and the hat opens or tucks away nicely. (Though it did break in places because it was played with too many times and the paper wasn't very good quality)
