How to Make an Origami Ditto

ByFlorent Fabre

Let’s fold this origami Ditto, designed by Ryan Dong.

At first glance, it looks simple, just a little purple blob with two arms and a drawn face. But the folding is more interesting than the finished model lets on, with quite a bit happening inside to give Ditto its three-dimensional shape.

Difficulty: Low-Intermediate
Folding time: 15 minutes

Hi, I’m Flo, and I’m the hands behind Origami.me.

After spending more than five years immersed in Japanese culture, I slowly fell in love with origami and the quiet focus that comes with folding paper. What started as simple curiosity became a real passion, not only for the art itself, but also for the calm, creativity, and mindfulness it brings to everyday life.

Today, I create tutorials, work with origami artists from around the world, and help beginners discover that anyone can learn origami, one fold at a time.
