Driver-induced oscillation, letting the clutch out a little too soon before the cars speed has caught up to the idle rpm with very light accelerator pedal pressure. Factor in the springs in the clutch disk oscillating and it's just action /reaction. Either drive it out of the oscillation or put the clutch back in and try a smoother transition.
