the shawl begins with a 3 stitch cast-on and expands by 6 stitches every other row. It is helpful to use stitch markers. It is easier to knit than it looks.

Directions are written out, There is no chart,

Errata: You are right. Both my test knitter and I missed this. There is no k1 at the end of set up row 8.
My sincere apologies.
