A "crinkle crankle" is a single wythe serpentine wall; a wythe is one
front-to-back layer of bricks, so the wall is like

"Twin Centers of the Universe", play AB (vs AAB).  Slghtly dreamy.

Great tune: "Twin Centers of the Universe" (on Mist-Covered Mountains by
the Elftones) - great phrasing, tempo.  Others possible.

Note: The line down the middle isn't a Rory O'More hands-up contra dance line;
hands are low-ish (like poussette position), arms curved, and the starting 
position is far enough back toward your own side that you can balance forward  
without stressing your shoulders.


A1:

1: Start with first corners in wavy line 
   (hands low) down center of the set, taking hands along line
   (right with other first corner in this set, left with next-set
   neighbor, hands on the center line, bodies a step back).  
   ALL balance forward toward partner
2:  ALL balance back
3-4: first corners right hand turn 1/4 and curve out to corner's
     home place on the sideline, facing across
5-8: right shoulder around with neighbor (across the set), 
     [long oval going through neighbor's place]; second corners go enough
     more to finish in wavy line, left hand with each other, as above

A2: 

1-2: ALL balance forward and back
3-4: In the wavy line, left-hand turn 1/4 and curve out to sideline (facing partner)
5-8: partners (progressed and crossed over) long oval left shoulder round
     and stick left hands in for 

B1: 1-4: left hand star all the way into
    5-8: double  mad robin CCW 
         [first corners go outside first, second corners go inside]
         1st corners finish facing out         

B2: 1-4: 1st corners in lead, partners chase (going quite wide outside set lines) to home place,
         1st corners flipping over left shoulder to face partner
         (path of a DRAW poussette, but it's a chase)
    5-8: half regular CCW poussette (progressed place), with 
         first corners forming the line with new neighbors as
         partners finish in side lines.
