Angelfish Instructions: For easier folding, lay the pattern over another piece of paper or on a sheet of cardboard. Using a ruler and ballpoint pen, trace the pattern to score the paper. The dotted lines are "valley" folds and should be folded toward you. The dashed lines are "mountain" folds and should be folded away from you. Once you've made all the folds, you have to "collapse" the completely folded form into a compact wad. This is the frustrating step. Then one snap of the scissors should suffice to cut all the bold lines at once.
