8. Relax for a bit and appreciate this intermediate result.

9. Squish the paper together, and make two new folds as shown. You can make these parallel to the initial fold, or you can vary the angle if you want to experiment. Crease these folds well, and carefully unfold the paper. Then flatten it out a bit.

10. Now do that fold reversing thing that we did in step 6 to one end of the paper as shown here on the left. Then do it to the other end.

11. Carefully compress the structure. Guess what?
