The Anita shell crocheted edging

I am looking for Ravelry testers for this edging as of 7-25-16. Here's the test page: http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/free-pattern-testers/3443972/

Notes.
- Shell = dc, ch 2, dc, ch 2, dc, ch 2, dc. 
- Ch 4, dc in first 2-ch space, ch 2 = pointy bottom of motif, on the outside of the edging. 
- Ch 3, dc in previous ch 7 is the top of the edging that will be sewed to something.

1. Ch 10, (dc, ch 2, dc, ch 2, dc, ch 2, dc) (=shell) in first ch (10th from hook). First shell made. Turn.
2. Ch 4, dc in first ch-2 space. Ch 2. Shell in second (next) ch-2 space. Ch 3. Dc in previous 10-ch loop. Ch 7. Turn.
3. Shell in second ch-2 space (middle of previous shell, that is). Ch 4, turn.
4. Dc in first ch-2 space, ch 2. Shell in next ch-2 space (middle of previous shell). Ch 3, dc in previous 7-ch loop. Ch 7. Turn.
Repeat rows 3 and 4 for length desired. To end, omit last ch 7. Instead, ch 1, cut thread and pull through.

(For another variant on this, see "Narrow Anita Edging.")
