Elise Kress, a trad musician in the Washington, DC, area of the United States, sent us this lovely slip jig. First, let's give a listen to her favorite version by the late, great Eugene O'Donnell. It's in a different key than we'll learn it in, but it's Eugene O'Donnell, folks.

​Slowed down for learning

Now let's learn the tune. As a reminder, the sheet music is available in the Session link at the top; the first setting is what's being taught here. But if you can learn it by ear without "the dots," give it a try!
