In a cross-armed juggling pattern one arm stays crossed over the other, and the lower hand does every throw and every catch under the arm. It's easier to do a cross-armed pattern with outside throws than with inside throws, because the hand movements for cross-armed outside throws are similar to the movements used for normal inside throws.

Mills mess is an alternating cross-armed pattern. Two throws of a cross-armed pattern (starting with an under the arm throw) are followed by an outside throw to transition to a cross-armed pattern on the other side. |
