prayer shawl
Devotional draped garment
A prayer shawl is a fringed garment worn during Jewish prayer, traditionally by men.
The Hebrew term is tallit.
The fringes (tzitzit) at the corners fulfill a biblical commandment.
In some Christian traditions, prayer shawls are knitted garments given as comfort gifts to the sick or grieving: The church group made prayer shawls for hospital patients.
