Weird handshake left-side pass inside chain turn right picture hold walk-around into open position #

Start form a [handshake] or a [weird handshake]. Lead an inside chain turn and then go into a [right picture] position and then do a two-step walk-around before anchoring back. On steps 1 and 2, lead two steps back and prep a left-side pass with an inside chain turn. On steps 3&4, lead the inside chain turn such that instead of drawing a halo over the follower, your right hand draws a partial halo do you can bring your right hand behind her head, then behind your left shoulder, head, and finally to your right shoulder. For the turn to work such that you are able to bring your right hand behind your neck, the follower’s right hand must be prepped at neck level before the turn begins. On &4, your left hand should also be extended at chest-level so that you catch the follower’s back by the end of the rotation. By the end of &4, you should look like you are standing together to take a picture! On 4 also make sure to make a bigger step than usual. You are not stepping into the slot, you are stepping past it, since steps 4, 5, and 6 are part of the walk-around. On the walk-around, the follower will step backwards and stay in place, while you step forwards around her for 0.5 turns. Finally on 7&8, you will move away from each other while her arm slides down your left hand so you will end up in [open] position.
