Best Answer

The place for words on a prayer shawl is at the top edge, the part that serves as a collar against your neck when you wear the shawl. There is no requirement for any words there, but many shawls have the words of the traditional blessing that is said when putting on the shawl -- so that you can hold up the shawl in front of you and read the blessing before wrapping it around your shoulders. The blessing translates roughly (and a bit archaically) as "Praised be Thou oh Lord our God king of the universe who has sanctified us with the commandment to wrap in fringes."
