Not what you were asking, but if the reason you want to do this is
space limitations rather than an interest in getting into square

already, and they take up even less room.
Triplets are good too. Squares just allow another two people to
dance in the same kitchen.

New subject: squares for house parties of mostly contra dancers?
Well here's a favorite triplet:
Melanie's Triplet Melanie Axel-Lute
A1 Lines of three fwd and back; top couple lead down center and cast
to second place
A2 Active couple (in center) turn contra corners
B1 All balance and swing partners; end facing up
B2 Top couple casts to bottom place, others follow single file enough
to invert the set; dosido partner
Micah Smukler's Triplet # i has the end couples of the triplet
turning contra corners (making use of imaginary friends). You can
find it at
