Learn how to make an origami monkey. Designed by Jo Nakashima (25/Feb/2016).
I came up with this model after creating the origami Mr. Heart because some of the intermediary steps resemble a monkey face.
In this video I’m using 15cm x 15cm Kraft paper. Standard origami paper works as well. I don’t recommend thick paper for this model.
