Dude, that is a pretty gorgeous shawl.
I have a pattern that looks kind of similar actually (except for the way the colors are), but since it doesn't have any images or videos for clarification, some of the instructions are a tad confusing to me...but I wanna try it eventually.

Also, some cool/interesting stuff: I do have some projects I need to finish soon, but one of my friends actually gave me the idea (and for the first time in forever, I'm actually pretty excited about a project), to make a giant stuffed dragon. This is something I can actually probably do with all animal patterns, but we decided dragon first. And by giant, I mean that I am estimating it to be close to, if not more than, 4 feet tall.
But I have some math to do to calculate....pretty much everything. Increases and decreases, rows per section of head/arm/leg, etc. How many rows of garter stitch on the belly. Basically, a fuck-ton of math. I did just a little math and just the row count for the head up to the row that the ears and horns are on will be 75 rows.
But seriously, I am stupid-excited about this and it will definitely be a stash-buster since I am not going to buy any specific yarn for it. But I will start with yarns that I have a lot of, but do not have any specific project for, just so at least most of it is not super patchworky.
