Take a stitch marker and mark between stitches 120 and 121. (This number will be different if you chose to add or minus length to your shawl.)
Work stockinette for the remainder of this pattern.
Knit 10 stitches past the stitch marker.
Perform a German short row on the 10th stitch you knitted. Purl up to 9 sts past the stitch marker and perform a German short row on the 9th stitch you purled.
Continue knitting rows by adding 3 sts past the last German short row performed until you have 34 sts left on both ends (ones that have not gone through the German short rows).
Stockinette 4 sts past the last German short row for a total of 6 rows. You should have 22 sts remaining on each end.
Stockinette 6 sts past the last German short row performed for a total of 2 rows. You should have 16 sts on either end.
Stockinette 8 sts past the last German short row performed for a total of 2 rows.
Stockinette the last 2 rows and BO.
Block your shawl.
