Here's a rar with images that are helpful for understanding symbols and folds commonly used in origami. These help a lot in getting past the language barrier. http://rapidshare.com/files/43198642/symbols-and-folds.rar
Basically, this origami pattern tells you to fold a bunch of 45 degreee angle folds. They're all valley folds, and if you want to, you can skip to step 10 and make valley folds to crease all of the solid and dotted lines. Step 10 is telling you to use the valley folds it highlights with a dotted line to get to step 11. The origami piece will not hold that shape on its own yet. Then fold along the crease lines highlighted in step 11. Step 11 simply shows how to make the pattern into a closed shape. Step 12 wraps around the shape from steps 10-11. Step 13 uses the tab end of the strip of paper to push into a pocket to fasten the origami so it will finally hold itself in place. The end.
