Beautiful shawl pattern for easy lace practice. The shawl progresses faster the more you knit since you are decreasing stitches each row, which is different from most other shawls I've knit which start with a small number of stitches (garter tab) and increase each row. It's a lot of stitches to cast on, but it's really satisfying to knock out the latter half of the shawl relatively quickly.
