need advice for altering semi circular shawls

[myrtaceaae]

Hi all! I mentioned it in the check-in, but I'm gonna make a full post!

There's a pattern that I'd been eyeing, and finally bought it, and the materials for it - hooray!
However I was checking project notes and it looks like I'll have to make some alterations to get it how I want it.
So I'd like some advice from people who have experience knitting this style of shawl, and possibly someone to cast an eye over that parts I've changed. But honestly, any advice about altering this style would go a long way!!

thanks for the luck...I'll need it! (getting very close to just giving it a go without advice and seeing how it looks anyways, can always rip it out and do it again!!)

Sometimes trial and error is the best way of figuring things out. It's my go-to method whenever I start something new.
