I got the feeling I should be using size 8-10.5 needles. It's so confusing, and alot of work in a shawl. I don't want to get done and be unhappy with it.
Thanks for your answers.

I have tinked more rows than I care to count and I've ripped out my entire project 3 times trying to learn how to handle the yarn. So for now, since I'm dealing with one of the worst colds I've ever had (I have to feel better to die! *sigh*), I've put lace knitting away and am doing some mindless crochet on a baby blanket. One of these days, though, I am determined to pick up my lace shawl needles and CONQUER the thing!! Thanks for asking. ;-)
