A roll fold, or barrel fold, is created by folding one section of paper inward, then continuing to roll and fold in the same direction.

To make a double parallel fold, paper is folded in half and then in half again in the same direction.

A tri-fold is made by folding both sides of a paper in toward the middle to create three equal sections.

A Z-fold is made by folding a piece of paper into thirds, with one third folded forward and another folded backward.

The half-fold and tri-fold are pretty simple and easy to figure out, but with names like double parallel fold and French fold, they can be a bit harder to remember. No problem. That’s why I am writing this post.
