Shell Stitches 01101 and 10110

It's been a while since the last shell stitch post, and I really want to finish this, so here's the next one: stitches 01101 and 10110.  These are both easy to do, and, in my opinion, pretty.  I prefer the purple version (01101) to the green version (10110) because the edges are more consistent with the bulk of the work. 


Stitch 01101:
Chain a multiple of 6 + 5
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, (sk 2, [dc, ch 1, 2 dc] in next ch, ch 1, sk 2, sc) across, [dc, ch 1, dc] in last ch
Row 2: ch 1, turn, sc, ([dc, ch 1, 2 dc] in sc, ch 1, sc in dc before ch 1 space) across, [dc, ch 1, dc] in last sc
Repeat Row 2 for pattern

Stitch 10110:
Chain a multiple of 6 + 5
Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook, (ch 1, sk 2, [2 dc, ch 1, dc] in next ch, sk 2, sc) across, [ch 1, 2 dc] in last ch
Row 2: ch 1, turn, sc, (ch 1, [2 dc, ch 1, dc] in sc, sc in dc after ch 1 space) across, [ch 1, 2 dc] in last sc
Repeat Row 2 for pattern
