Here are my calcuations for the stitch counts in FF&L.
Total stitches in body (chart 1; 7 repeats of chart 2; chart 3) = 138,848
Total stitches in edging = 25,685
Total stitches for entire shawl = 160,533
Chart 1 = 12,160 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 1 = 20,080 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 2 = 30,176 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 3 = 42,448 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 4 = 56,896 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 5 = 73,520 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 6 = 93,320 cumulative
Chart 2, Rpt 7 = 113,296 cumulative
Chart 3 = 134,848 cumulative
Being the anal numbers person that I am, I have a complete spreadsheet for the FF&L shawl that details out round by round everything you ever needed to know about stitch counting but were afraid to ask, including % completion by round as well. I even calculated the edging stitches based on the number of stitches in the final round of the body, taking into account how many stitches are picked up as the edging is attached per edge repeat. Do I love numbers or what!! (Disclaimer - I cannot guarantee that all my calucations are correct, but it's close enough for me).
