2C, 1C, & 3C dance mirror reels of 3 on the sides of the dance, beginning by 1C dancing in and up, 2C dancing out and down, and 3C dancing out and up. |
Repeat. |
Suggested music is Wind that Shakes the Barley from Muckle Carfuffle. |
This dance reminds me of a caterpillar at the beginning and a butterfly at the end; thus the name. |
