For
Jeanette "Nette" Pembroke's 60th birthday.
The middle person in each set doesn't progress, but the couples
they dance with do (double progression)! Hence they are caught in
the net at that spot.
A1 | Men and middle half hey, middle passing right shoulder with 2nd man to start; women turn out clockwise |
Women and middle half hey, middle passing right shoulder with 2nd woman to start; men turn out anti-clockwise | |
A2 | 1s and 2s half rights-and-lefts, starting with partner |
1s do-si-do; while 2s cross giving right hand and move to the end of a line of five; middle steps back into the centre of the line | |
B1 | Line of five down the hall (6 beats), ends turn alone, while middles turn man's side high, woman's side low, to invert the three (4 beats), back up the hall and bend the line (6 beats) |
B2 |
Circle half-way (4 beats) and
balance the ring (4 beats) |
Middle and 1s arch down over
2s, all moving forward (4 beats) |
|
Middle take hands with new 2s
below and draw them back between the 1s (double
progression), 1s and 2s moving forward; 2s that reach the
top switch sides (4 beats) |
