4. For the lace sections, follow the four-row repeat lace pattern starting from R12 to R15. This creates the delicate, intricate look that defines the Magnolia Lace Shawl.
5. To complete the shawl, repeat certain sections as directed in the pattern until you achieve the desired length and width, finishing with a final set of rows that solidify the edging and overall shape of the shawl.
