-------

A1  1st corners set and turn single. 1s cast into 2nd place as 2s move up.
A2  New 1st corners repeat A1, 2s casting.
B1  1st corners meet, stand back-to-back. 2nd corners the same.
    Join hands facing out and step right, then left, then circle right half way.
B2  Neighbors lead out to wall, change hands and  lead in again. 1s lead up, cross over,
    and cast; while 2s wait and cross over.

[B2: If 1s do a half-figure-eight, it works fine.  It also works fine to do a lead and roll-away and cast,
a right hand lead that starts up and crosses up, a right hand lead that starts up, faces, cross right 
shoulder and continue down the outside.  What's meant?]
