Cary notes:
"The central figures of this dance, A2 and B1, are borrowed from Ted Sannella's Fiddleheads.
You can run this as an alternating dance (as in Alternating Corners by Jim Kitch). On even cycles, after the neighbor swing, twos cross the set, turn left, etc. Gentlespoons face down and ladles face up in the initial diamonds, and after the partner swings (both versions), ones face down and twos face up."
