Here is a really nice crocheted one that works up quickly. Wheelchair wrap (http://crochetme.com/patterns/wheelchair-wrap)

Too funny. I ran in and got out my book of patterns I had printed out. I just knew I had one like that. Sure enough-it was the same one Virginia just posted. Ahem-I guess great minds think alike. Seriously, I want to make this for myself. I like that it is not long in the back and denser than most.

That wheelchair wrap is great!

Just remember that the longer the point is on a shawl the more uncomfortable it'll be bunched up in the small of the back.
