Yarn: Jade Sapphire Mongolian Cashmere 2 ply, color Vintage Rose. I used a little less than 2 skeins, so probably 600-700 yards.
Pattern: Miralda's Triangular Shawl, from Nancy Bush's Knitted Lace of Estonia
Needles: I find that Nancy Bush patterns usually call for needles that are a little too small for me to get gauge. I didn't do a swatch, I just used US 7s of Addi Turbo lace needles, which were absolutely perfect for this project.
Modifications: Check the errata for this pattern! I had to change one of the printed charts to correct a mistake. Otherwise, none.
Time: This took me about 2.5 weeks of completely monogamous knitting, and every minute of those 2.5 weeks were thoroughly enjoyable.

It's gorgeous! I'm just about to swatch for mine now - mostly so I can make my mistakes on shorter rows. BTW, I'm the opposite with Nancy Bush and gauge; I like to use a smaller needle.
