The Tuttle Chiyogami pack is an industry standard for those who need a high volume of decorative paper with reliable "dead-fold" memory. The fiber density is calibrated to ensure that creases stay sharp without the "spring-back" effect often seen in lower-grade papers. Each of the 500 sheets is 6 inches square and cut to a tight precision tolerance of ±0.5mm, which is a vital specification for maintaining alignment in geometric modular origami.
The paper thickness is kept to a consistent 0.08mm through a high-fidelity offset printing process rather than lamination. This allows the bulk of a model to remain manageable even when a design requires more than ten folding sequences. The patterns are printed with non-bleed ink, ensuring that the colors stay on the paper and do not transfer to the user's hands. The included case provides a way to keep the large quantity of paper organized when not in use.
The industrial die-cutting of these sheets helps prevent "creeping" errors, which can ruin a complex model if the paper is not perfectly square from the start.
For those who find the 6-inch size too large for certain projects, the 4-inch Washi Pattern set offers a more compact alternative.
