Origami Square has nothing to do with paper craft—but its structure reminded me so much of the Japanese origami art that the name stuck.

With clever color placement, the pattern even forms little fir trees! One square shows two trees, but you can “grow your forest” by adding more stripes with triangles.

Just like the real origami does not involve cutting or gluing, the Origami Square becomes a continuous, meditative project with no ends to weave. When made in one color. But of course, if you choose multiple colors, you’ll have a few ends, but many can be woven in as-you-go.
