Unfold the paper and fold it into a triangle again, joining the other two corners. The second fold is also ready.

Open the paper and flip to the other side. Fold in half, turning the square into a rectangle.

Straighten the paper and point the horizontal fold inward.

At the same time, lower the top side to the bottom, pressing the paper along the edges. The double triangle is ready.

Bend the side corners of the upper layer of the triangle up to the very corner. Get a small square.

Move the right side of this square to the left so that it does not interfere with it yet.

And lower the right corner of the lower layer of the triangle down, aligning the side in the middle.

On the left, we need to repeat the steps. In the same way, move, now the left side of the square, to the right, so as not to interfere.

And lower the left corner of the triangle down, completely bending the side to the middle.
