Cary Ravitz notes: This dance is an easier version of Through the Looking Glass, or you
might see it as Amy Kahn's Sweet Music with a different progression,
or Steve Zakon-Anderson's Twirling at the Alter with the progression
moved from the hey to the circle, or David Zinkin's Becky's Becket
with a different A2.

Heidi's original dance replaced the B1 with
LLFB
Ladles chain
Ladles full hey right
but I have both too many dances without Neighbor swings and too many dances with long lines - neither of those are necessary here, so I opted for the B1 above.
