    Summary: In [Am. Math. Mon. 112, No. 8, 682--704 (2005; Zbl 1107.51007)], \textit{D. A. Cox} and \textit{J. Shurman} proved that the curves they call \(m\)-clovers can be subdivided into \(n\) equal lengths (for certain values of \(n\)) by origami, in the cases where \(m=1,2,3\), and \(4\). In this paper, we expand their work to include the 6-clover.
