春風/Harukaze
“春風/Harukaze” is an original Renzuru model of this site – “Tsuru-no-Goshiki”.
Renzuru means connected-cranes which are made of only one paper without glue and tape.
I’ve posted only ways to prepare a paper for original models other than Temusubi.
Renzuru models which I posted how to make them are yellow thumbnails like the picture below.
If you are looking for those models, please look for them on the top page.

Harukaze is the model that four cranes are connected to each other with wings.
Since wings are connected to each other, it is easier to make this model than Sazanami.

Preparation of an origami paper
【Size】
a 15x15cm paper or it is bigger than 15cm.
【Kinds】
・Basic origami paper
・Double sided origami paper
・Washi paper
I made this model with a 15x15cm basic origami paper.
Since wings are connected to each other,
it is easy to make this model with a basic origami paper even.
Fold the paper in half in each direction.
After making creases, it looks like this picture.
Preparing an origami paper is completed!
Make creases
To make creases on a paper
To make creases on a paper before cutting the paper is very important.
If you cut a paper first before making creases, it will get harder to make creases on the paper.
Also, there’s a possibility that the paper is cut halfway when making creases.
This step is making basic-creases on each square.
On the other page, there is how to make basic-creases.
I will paste the link down below.
Make basic-creases, which are the green lines and the blue lines in this picture, on each square in the paper.
Make basic-creases in each yellow square.
This picture is taken after making basic-creases in each yellow square.
Please make sure whether there are the creases, which are the green lines and the blue lines in the 2 pictures ago, in each yellow square.

Cut the paper while referencing the diagram.
This is an enlarged picture.
I used a 15x15cm paper.
I left about 2 to 2.5mm for the length of the connecting part.
Make sure the direction of each crane
Make sure the direction of each crane
When making Renzuru, to fold cranes while making sure the direction of each crane is very important.
On this site, I will draw lines on each square in a picture.
Make cranes so that the lines are changed to wings.
I recommend that you draw lines lightly on the back in order not to make a mistake.
Make cranes so that the blue lines are changed to wings.
Preparing a paper for Harukaze is finished!
Make this model carefully while making sure the direction of each crane!
After making four cranes, make beaks at parts whichever you like.
I made beaks so that cranes face in the direction of clockwise.
