Approximately 19”/48.5cm deep x 48”/122cm wide

GAUGE
On Stockinette st, 23 sts and 30 rows = 4”/10 cm.

NOTES
Due to the elasticity of the pattern stitch, gauge is measured over Stockinette stitch.
Due to the difficulty in measuring the shawl while on the needles, size is determined by the number of stitches.
Circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of sts. However be sure to work back and forth on circular needle and do not join.
