===== Detailed Description =====

This is a linked hankie dance.

==== Chorus ====

Bar 1: #1 & #2 come together and process to the bottom under arches made by the other dancers.  (Dancers process by jogging; there is not enough time for proper stepping.)
Bar 2: #3 & #4 come together and process to the bottom under arches made by the other dancers.
Bar 3: #5 & #6 come together and process to the bottom under arches made by the other dancers.
Bar 4: all dancers [[dances:fieldtown:figures:foot-together-jump|foot-together-jump]].
Bars 5-8: [[dances:fieldtown:figures:half-hey|half hey]].  Dancers hold linked hankies high whenever passing on the outside and low on the inside.

Repeat.

For the final chorus (after [[dances:fieldtown:figures:back-to-back|back-to-back]]), the first half hey is standard (mirror image).  The second half hey is "Adderbury style" with the two lines moving in parallel.  Tops pass middles by the right shoulder and bottoms by the left shoulder.  Then middles pass bottoms by the right shoulder.  At the end of this second half hey, the hankies are woven into a pinwheel for rounds.
