As someone who is extremely new to origami (I’ve literally only made hearts before) this tutorial was perfect!!! I was able to complete this on my first try with little to no issue. Thank you so much!

That is satisfying when it comes together in the end.

Oh wow! Thank you so much for this video tutorial. It helped me tremendously with my first 30 unit sonobe kusudama! I’ve used a 3x3 washi paper so I am really happy it turned out well! :)

Great explanation! I did 4 kusudama balls before and it had been a while. I do a bit more steps on my single units, they have more folds and I like it as well. They show more of the other side of the paper. I'll try the version you show here to test the finish look irl. Let's fold!
