Encyclopedia of Origami Techniques, The: The complete, fully illustrated guide to the folded paper arts

One of the good book in Origami Instructions.

I'm overwhelmed with the number of techniques and projects to do. Can hardly until I have time to sit down with the book and create.

The origami thing started as a lockdown joke with a friend ... I ordered paper for us to do drunken zoom origami. I tried some designs from the net and found I enjoyed it. I bought this book and it explained the art in more depth, the meditative side of the process and went deeper into it . Also teaching the symbols for doing the patterns that are international ...you could even follow a design developed by somebody speaking any language as the pattern symbols are same for all. The book is just lovely, descriptions and illustrations on each page intrigue and encourage.It’s taught me that the slow process (journey?) to the end result is what it’s all about....concentration, focus and patience ...once you finish the design you feel quite zen.Lovely, to the author I say thank you .

Not very useful for kids. Not detailed instructions.

The ideal book, for beginners and not-so beginners. Clear instructions on technique, good pictures and diagrams, and many interesting projects to try.

Just got into origami myself lately and had mostly used online videos to fold models so far, which can be confusing at times. This is a neat book if you wish to learn the terminology and folding techniques of origami from scratch - I love that the book takes you from beginner, intermediate all the way to advanced models in a joyful, but coherent way. No fuss as the book provides a clear layout and simple explanations to achieve the folds. Highly recommended!
