Weasel Reel
An online definition may be found here.
Bars: 8.
This is a reel for three couples, it starts with four dancers on the center line ready for a reel of four, and two other dancers out on the side lines about midway up or down the set. The one on the men's line is facing up, the one on the woman's line is facing down.
It finishes when everyone is back where they started.
Those on the center line pass right to start the reel, while those on the outsides chase clockwise. When someone reaches the end of the reel they start chasing clockwise. When someone reaches the end of the chase, they give way before the person exiting the reel, and then pass the next person in the reel by the right.
History
According to a note on the SCD dictionary this reel was invented by Barry Skelton in 1990.
