Notes

A test knit. This is a challenging pattern. Definitely not a beginner/intermediate knit.

6/9/13 7 grams remaining. Finished shawl weighs 232 grams. Must gave gotten some heavy skeins.

6/10 finished dimensions: 60” across the top, 25” along the spine.

General Thoughts:
As I said above, this is not a pattern suitable for a beginner. There are multiple charts, two charts for each row. Lots of different types of cable crosses including the dreaded wrong side cable cross. Chart symbols indicate different stitches on the front side than the wrong side.

That being said, the pattern is clear. You just need to follow the charts/instructions and you will have a fabulous result. But if you have trouble juggling the things I mentioned, you will have trouble. You need to pay attention, not zone out knitting by any stretch of the imagination.
