(fogli)... uno infilato nell’altro

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:(fogli)... uno infilato nell’altro
French translation:les deux ne faisant qu\'une/l\'une dans l\'autre

Italian term or phrase: (fogli)... uno infilato nell’altro
Si distribuiscono e si piegano in otto i soliti fogli intonsi, due a testa, ***uno infilato nell’altro*** e si gettano in mezzo al tavolo. XXX ha l’incarico di sceglierne due e di infilarli nelle tasche di destra e di sinistra del prof. XXXX.

-> je vois bien l'idée et même la scène, mais je ne suis pas convaincue par des feuilles de papier "enfilées l'une dans l'autre"... d'autre part, je cherche à éviter "repliées l'une sur l'autre", ce qui serait plus juste, pour éviter la redondance avec "plier en 8"!!

Quelqu'un s'y connaît en origami et autres pliages? :-)

Merci!
