Prayer Shawls
It has been a tradition to wear shawls while praying in some religious communities. These shawls are made of soft and comfortable materials and are meant for providing peace of mind and gaining concentration while praying. Generally, prayer shawls are woven in light colors as it suits the moods and temperament of the person offering prayers. Prayer shawls are actually multipurpose shawls to wear, to lie upon, to sit and pray.


Fabric:
Different religions have different prayer shawls, the most significant among them are the Jewish prayer shawls known as "Tallit". The tallit is a prayer shawl, which is the most authentic Jewish garment. Tallit is a rectangular-shaped piece of linen or wool; and sometimes, now, polyester or silk with special fringes called Tzitzit on each of the four corners. Elderly women in the Sikh community of India also wear shawls while praying. Muslim men also wear shawls while offering routine prayer.

Fabric:
Elegantly designed tallit or prayer shawls from Israel are woven in 100% wool fabric. Prayer shawls are made of wool or blend of materials with striping in black, navy, or white. Classic prayer Shawls are machine made in Israel. These shawls are crafted of soft wool, dyed white, and have vibrant feel and look on it's striping. Designer tallits come in wool, silk, chiffon, and blended materials.

Design & Pattern:
The size of a tallit is variable and depends on the way it is worn. Most prayer shawls are 72" to 80" in width spanning across from arm to arm. The size varies depending on the length at the back. Large sizes are common for the religious community and people who enjoy a royal look while wearing their prayer shawl. A rich personalization is created on all types of tallits by means of brilliant embroidery. Personalization can be done in Gold, Silver, Navy, or other preferred threads.
