Ok....the wave balance (with partner's left hand) into a swing seems really awkward. I'm sure there's a way to make it flow, but I'm missing it. Thoughts?

A2: Men balance, dosido, allemand R 1-1/4 to form wave by joining L hands
with partners

B1: Balance wave, swing partners

B2: Women chain 1/2 to R-hands across star position; turn star 1/2 and
look for next neighbor



Following David Millstone's suggestion, went to David Smukler's discussion
of Dandy's Hornpipe at
http://www.davidsmukler.syracusecountrydancers.org/dandies.htm which was
so intriguing that it was hard to resist trying yet another tweaked
version. This is a totally spur-of-the moment conception with no time
spent researching, so if it's already been done, my apologies for
reinventing someone else's wheel. Comments and suggestions would be
extremely welcome.

(Duple Proper)

A1: Long lines forward and back; actives turn by R hand 1/2, allemand L
neighbor (till women are facing in again--will be less than a full turn in
men's line)

A2: Ladies chain over and back

B1: Star L; star R with NEXT couple down

B2: Actives swing; end facing up and cast off with original neighbor

If A1 is too rushed, what about
A1: Actives turn by R 1-1/2; allemand L neighbor, etc?
