Tying the Tallit

Question

If you don't have a clip or other way to keep it on, is it permitted to wear a tallis as shown in the attached photo? In case it's hard to tell, the wearer has wrapped one corner of the tallis over another -- not a stam knot, but rather in the pattern of folding one's arms across the chest.

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for your question.

It is acceptable to wear the Tallit as you have demonstrated.
