So I fell in love with a shawl design (www.ravelry.com)

I am a complete beginner and I can tell that this is anything but a beginner pattern. Obviously this shouldn’t be the first project I attempt. However, could some of you maybe give me an idea of how ridiculous it would be to try this as one of my first 5 or so projects for example? How much experience would I need to work myself up to this? It looks so complicated.

They're mostly constant. Sometimes you'll see small stylistic differences, but the pattern author should give you a legend of the symbols. Personally, I like them since it's easier to know which stitch of the precious row to work into.
