Civil War Shawl Redux

Redux is my word of the day. ("Like a Phoenix from the ashes" sounded a little overly dramatic.)
I am now on pattern repeat thirteen and a half. Took a long time to get all of the dropped stitches back on the needles in proper order. I doubt it's perfect. My sister is not a knitter, though (except for idiot cloths, which she learned to knit so her hands would be authentically occupied), so I doubt she'll notice.

This does not look like 15 pattern repeats plus edging will be big enough...

You are a talented knitter of some beautiful lace projects! Keep up the great work. Keep in mind that it will grow lots when you block it.

It looks great to me.....but then, I have frogged the shawl I am working on 3 times and I have still made some big mistakes. I decided I am just going to use your wonderful pattern as a suggestion and a learning project. Too bad the person I have in mind for it is an expert knitter.
