Author's Notes:
These combinations move the dancers two steps forward or one step forward around the square until everyone gets their partner back.
Editor's Notes:
Allemande X (timings are approximate):
Corners allemande left
Partners pass right shoulders
Swing the one you meet
A typical patter call is "allemande left like an allemande X, pass this one and swing the next".
Each time through the dancers advance one place to the right (with their original partner). After four times through everybody is home.
This dance is from American Country Dances On Line
