Hello Hans
When you make one book fold from a square the result is a shape that is called
a 'rectangle'. I'm not sure if there is a specific name for the cross that is
formed on the square after making two book folds, sorry.I hope this helps.
Best RegardsWilliam

Certainly not the books :-)
When making each of these steps, I get the diagonal cross and the ... what ...
cross?
In Danish I call them “diagonalfolder” and “tværfolder”, where “tværs” means
across, and I get a “diagonalkryds” and a “tværkryds” where “kryds” means cross.
That is, I do not know, in English, the name of the crease that goes from the
centre of one edge to the centre of the opposite edge. And I do not know the
name of the cross made from two of those creases.
I hope somebody can clear up this terminology for me.
Best regards,
Hans
