Bind off with 4 mm crochet hook.

Measurements:
before blocking: size: 33 × 74 cm;
after blocking: weight: 56 g, size: 36 × 91 cm. (Please take a look at the picture I took while blocking, how the shawl was shaped!)

I gave a high medium difficulty to the pattern because it requires great concentration to follow the charts while knitting is easy for an experienced knitter and challenging for a beginner or intermediate lace knitter.

In my opinion this pattern needs a fingering or sport yarn. I used light fingering - though the flowers show beautifully, my shawl is a bit too delicate and the yarn gave too much added lenght to the edge pattern which made the blocking hard to do adequately.
