A1/A2... I'm on the outside, holding my N's R hand... With the Dixie twirl, I'm still in that spot. When we bend the line, my P and I are above the 2s, in reversed position.

B1: All are swinging in the center of the set. When the swing finishes, all are back to IMP position where they started.

B2: With one petronella, I move to the side with my P. When I CA twirl, I'm turning with a N to progress.

In B1, if the M cross to their P and swing, then you progress the wrong way. Is the instruction left out in B1 "W cross to P"... ?

Hi Keith,

The dance works fine-- I'm not sure where the confusion is. Partner swing is on the side of the set, so one petronella means you're facing up and down the set, next to your partner. A CA twirl then makes you progress. 1s and 2s are indeed across from each other when they swing, which is almost always true when you swing your partner, and when 1s and 2s are across from each other, you're on the same side of the set with your partner.

In other words:
"1s and 2s are across from each other to swing, and when they finish." Yes.
"A petronella would put your partner on the same side . . ." No.

This dance doesn't work the way I read it. 1s and 2s are across from each other to swing, and when they finish. A petronella would put your partner on the same side; a CA twirl would then send you and your P in opposite directions.
