   White side up. Fold in half side to side and unfold.

   2. Fold in half upward

   Fold the bottom edge up to the top edge.

   Fold a thin strip (about 1 cm) along the top edge through both layers, then unfold.

4. 

   4. Fold the bottom corners up

   Fold the two bottom corners up at a slant so the side edges lie along the strip crease.

5. 

   5. Fold the strip down, turn over

   Fold the front layer’s strip down along its crease so it covers the corner tips. Then turn the model over.

6. 

   6. Fold this strip down too

   Fold this strip down along its crease too, lining it up with the other one. The white strips become the collar.

7. 

   7. Fold the top edges to the center

   Starting at the middle of the top edge, fold the top-left and top-right corners down at a slant so the top edge lies on the center line. Then turn over.

8. 

   8. Open the sleeves

   Fold the lower half of the middle band up along the middle line. At the same time fold each side flap in half on that line and swing it up and out, pressing flat. The top becomes wide sleeves and the white collar shows below.

   9. Turn over: done

   Turn the model over: your kimono is done! The white collar meets in a V at the neck and runs down the front.
