Hi Elizabeth,

             If you want even more threading see this great Square Dance:

             Appalachian Big Set also has “Snake in the Fence”.  After leading a line of people into a tight spiral (Winding Up the Ball of Yarn) the leader starts to dive randomly between couples to get back to the outside!  Best not use too long a line and take it slowly!

 

            Happy dancing,

                   John

Thank you, Yoyo

Do you have an example of a dance where a "thread the needle" happens?
