To work you will need to take:

- black felt-tip pen;
- scissors.

We start making squid by folding a square diagonally.

After this, the resulting triangle needs to bend the side corners towards the center line.

Now we will bend the sides of the resulting square.

Let's make a fold in the bottom corner.

We begin to straighten the blank of the future squid, giving it a more elongated shape. To do this, straighten its right side and fold it into a triangle.

We do the same with the left side of the squid blank. The result is a rhombus.

In the upper part of the resulting diamond, we make two small cuts on the sides.

We bend the paper to the side and get the tail fin of our cephalopod.

Now let's work on the front part of the squid. First, turn the workpiece over to the other side.

For the triangle located in the middle, make a fold at its base.

Bend the triangle down and form another fold. The remaining slightly smaller triangle will be the squid's head.

From the lower remaining part we will form the tentacles of the mollusk. To do this, use scissors to make cuts on both sides.

We bend the small triangles on the sides in the opposite direction.
![Paper squid](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/17/2486-kalmar-iz-bumagi.jpg)
We cut the remaining part into strips, these will be the tentacles of the mollusk.

The tips of the tentacles can be slightly curled using a small round object (for example, a toothpick).

All that remains is to draw the eyes, our paper squid is ready.
