Cankerworm When this piece was devised in the late 80’s, origami with more than a dozen appendages was a rarity. Still, the method for coaxing this many legs is similar to the blintz technique. All of the major appendages are derived from around the perimeter of the square. Body pleating allows for more dynamic posing. The cankerworm changes into a moth just as the caterpillar becomes a butterfly but it is distinctive from the rest of the caterpillar family, as there are no serrations. Purchase book at Lulu.com
