I'll second Indigo Silk. Not familiar with the second one.
I wrote one a while ago that does use the ubiquitous 1/2 figure 8. But also
borrows from things like David Kaynor's Open Doors
Simply Left in Wisconsin
by Luke Donforth
Contra/Proper/Int
A1 -----------
PROPER
(8) Circle Right 3/4
As couple with same role neighbor
(8) See-Saw opposite role couple
A2 -----------
(16) Partner balance and swing
B1 -----------
(8) Ladies Chain across
(8) Ones half Figure eight up the set
B2 -----------
(8) Long lines, forward and back
(8) Circle Left 1X
turn and face new neighbors

Hi,
I've been assigned the opening slot at this year's 2019 New England Folk
Festival (NEFFA) for my session:
"Keepin' It Proper Contras - It's not all about improper contras! Dances
from times past to the present set in a proper form."
Soooo... what proper dances have you found to be particular favorites
with dancers
and amenable in a large hall "some experience" (non-advanced
dancer) setting? I'd appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks,
Don
