Origami Fox Step 4: Now we fold the entire paper in half on the diagonal shown below. Notice "-.-.-." means that this is a mountain fold. So the crease should remain at the top. We fold both the tips Y and Z down.

Origami Fox Step 6: Unfold the crease you just made in Step 5. As you do so, you'll notice that there's actually 3 layers of paper! We're going to make a squash fold on the middle layer to form the face of the fox.
