The Strange Case of Origami Yoda

I got a new book called The Strange Case of Origami Yoda.  It's a cool story - when a kid folds an origami Yoda, and sits it on his finger like puppet, it gives good advice.

Even better, there are instructions in the back of the book to make your own finger puppet.  I made loads, then I thought bigger.

I got a sheet of A2 paper, tweaked the instructions a bit to suit my own taste, and I made a giant Origami Yoda.

Here's how...

Step 1 Fold down

Start with the sheet of paper portrait style.

About 15cm (6 inches) from the top, fold it down and make a sharp crease.

thanks one thing i didn't know about is in the first (made) STAR WARS films (episode 5,6,7) YODA was a robot with a cloak (i wonder if there is an instructable for that.
