Shell Stitches 00110 and 01100

It's that time of year! Time for craft fairs!  Which means that I've been working on building up an inventory of things I think will sell.  So I've made probably 20 of the Half Lace Shawls in the past month, along with probably a dozen curly scarves.  All this means, that I haven't really made much that is post worthy recently, though I have been very productive crochet-wise.  

Anyway, I decided I needed to post again, so I took some time out and tried out the next stitches in the Modified Shell stitch series: stitch 00110 (blue) and stitch 01100 (green).  There is very little difference in the two stitches; the only notable one is that the blue one has 2 dc at the end of each row, and the green one has only 1.  Also, when working the blue stitch, sc in the first dc, and when working the green stitch, sc in the second dc.  Other than that, they're identical, and pretty easy to do.  They both have columns ascending vertically throughout the work. 


Here are the patterns:
Stitch 00110:
Chain a multiple of 6 + 5
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, (ch 1, sk 2, 2 dc in next ch, ch 2, sk 2, sc) across, 2 dc in last ch
Row 2: ch 1, turn, sc, (ch 1, 2 dc in sc, ch 2, sc in first dc) across, 2 dc in last sc

Repeat Row 2 for pattern

Stitch 01100:
Chain a multiple of 6 + 5
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, (ch 2, sk 2, 2 dc in next ch, ch 1, sk 2, sc) across, (ch 2, dc) in last ch
Row 2: ch 1, turn, sc, (ch 2, 2 dc in sc, ch 1, sc in second dc) across, (ch 2, dc) in last sc

Repeat Row 2 for pattern
