Note: It turns out that the four leaf clover is often confused with the shamrock, the 3 leaf clover. The four leaf clover is a lucky symbol while the 3 leaf clover is what is now commonly used to represent St Patrick's Day.
The four leaf clover is actually a variation of the 3 leaf clover with supposedly 10,000 three-leaf clovers for every four-leaf clover! They sure are difficult to come by!
We'll leave this origami on this page but do fold the 3-leaf clover origami if you want an origami for St Patrick's Day.
