Hi Todd,

Is possible that the creator is Eito Ishii? In the database: 
http://www.giladorigami.com/origami-database/Sheep%20Eiko%20Ishii there is a 
sheep published in NOA 20.

Hope that helps,
Alex

I saw a photo of an origami sheep on the internet.  I read that it was
designed by Eito Mito.  The article said that it came from the NOA origami
magazine no# 493,  but it wasn't there.  Do you know how I can find the
diagram for it?

Thanks,  Todd

When I got your link I scrolled to the top and I got a link in orange that says 
"overseas customers click here to buy this item" in English.

(Once I click I go to the page with the address is below - but add http:// in 
front)

Good luck.

If you open the page with Google Chrome, it should offer you to translate the 
text from Japanese into English (it worked for me). However, I started the 
ordering process, and it looks like the vendor doesn’t ship outside Japan.

Good luck!

I think (though it's hard to tell exactly) that this Japanese blog might be
the original source of the image:

https://plaza.rakuten.co.jp/anzubiyori/diary/?ctgy=6

(look for "Dec 15, 2010" to find the specific entry.) Google translate
implies that the blog author may have come up with this specific version of
the piece on their own, so there may be no diagrams.

Five minutes of noodling with a piece of paper, however, and I managed to
get a pretty good replica, myself - the points of the lapels are two
neighboring corners of the paper (square) folded into the center; the
opposite edge of the square is folded over a couple of times to make the
brim, fold the brim down to the lapels, then fold the sides down to make
the point of the hat (folding it into thirds works nicely, and you even
have a spot to tuck one of the sides into); then fold the lapels.

Hope that's useful!

Anne
