FBS - How many more repeats?
My simple YO garter stitch shawl has failed to keep me interested for too long... So being the flicker-minded knitter I have always been, she has now became a Flower Basket shawl... It's been a really long time since my last lace project... at least over 10 years... Oops, I forgot I did the chunky fan & feather scarf but it's not lace yarn so that doesn't count, right? Anyway, this is definitely much more fun and progressing well...

Your shawl is so beautiful. I have no advice on the repeats though. Never knitted anything quite like that!
I'm poor at estimating yarn, it always gives me anxiety. Do remember to leave enough yarn for the border though.
This sounds like one of my kid's challenging math homework questions :) I usually tell her to go and ask her father!
But take a look at this (her Aug 24 post) and see if it helps:
