I do not have pictures of everything. I put a few for examples and colors. Your “one stop shop” for things TZITZIT If you don’t see it listed, contact me, I can probably make it ;-DPLEASE NOTE: I have sold thousands of Kosher TZITZIT products to Jews, Christians, and Messianics over the years (check my eBay listings). I have a lot of original ideas that other people have “ripped off” from my pages. Please understand that your complete satisfaction is very important to me, so please look this page over carefully. HOWEVER, If this practice of selling to anyone in the world (all 50 states and over 50 countries now) is against your Minhag or Rabbinical instructions, (or maybe you just don’t want to do business with a sincere good guy) please do not buy these items from me. I will still wish you the greatest success in your future. SHALOM, my friend! Please allow extra time for larger quantity orders as these are hand-tied Imported Israeli Wool TZITZIT Tassels THIS IS GOOD STUFF, ALSO MAKES A GREAT TEACHING TOOL! Each set that I make consists of 4 individual tassels (1 set of 4 TZITZIT) The initial loop (for attaching the TZITZIT to a TALLIT, belt loop, or garment) is about 3″ long. This will accommodate a Tallit hole that is up to 1.5″ from the edge. (see the picture below for installation instructions) For a FREE teaching LESSON on “The TALLIT and TZITZIT” go to: holywordcafe.com/tours (resources page) for your convenience, here are the links: – holywordcafe.com/tours/resources/Customs_and_Traditions-TALLIT_and_TZITZIT-4-Page-Version.pdf – holywordcafe.com/tours/resources/Customs_and_Traditions-TALLIT_and_TZITZIT-Verses_with_Pics.pdf IDEAS: Not only are TZITZIT worn on the four corners of a garment, but some people give these as gifts, hang them on the wall, attach them to their car mirror, place one on a key ring, attach one to a ring with business card-sized Bible memory verses, use as a Bible bookmark, hang them in the office, on the desk, worn on a belt loop, on and on the examples go. The TZITZIT is designed to be seen, and when seen, it reminds us to do the commandments of G-d.

Please do not abuse this.It’s the buyer’s responsibility to pay customs fees, duties, import taxes, and related charges. Thanks for looking! Shalom & Happy Bidding! INTRODUCTION: In Numbers 15:37-41, Deuteronomy 22:12, G-d (YHVH) commanded Moses for the Children of Israel to put “fringes” on the four corners of their garments. The Hebrew words are TZITZIT in Numbers 15:37-41 (which has a numerical value of 600); and GEDILIM in Deuteronomy 22:12. Ashkenazi, Sephardic and Chassidic tassels have 5 knots and 8 cords which equals 13 (600+13=613). 613 is the number of MITZVOT (commandments) found in the TORAH (the first 5 books of the TANAK – Hebrew Bible). Karaite and Two-House tassels have 12 strings and are made into “chains” or “braids.” In the Ashkenazi, Sephardic, and Chassidic styles, the long cord is called the shamash (servant) which wraps around all of the other strings. The number of shamash spirals between the knots is also interesting. Various Traditions signify one of the Names of G-d (YHVH) differently. KOSHER ISRAELI WOOL STYLES Tie Your Own (string only) This is pretty awesome! I have had several requests for WOOL. So far, I have just done this on an individual basis as this sheep (ewe) wool from the Holy Land is more expensive than the much easier to find COTTON. But for those who want it, I’ve started keeping this machine-made, durable, thick, tightly woven, Israeli, kosher, wool in stock (not like the fuzzy springy yarn stuff you have no doubt seen). This elite spun WOOL is exclusively made for hand-tying tzitzit. I must say that in my experience I find that there are different levels of seriousness in fringes, so for the folks who want to do the good deed of tying their own tzitziyot in fulfilling the commandment of tzitzit with higher quality WOOL, here you go. It is the same string as what you find on a tallit made in Israel. TAKE NOTE: I order this special wool and have it shipped from Israel. It comes exactly as pictured below and is precut to these lengths: Length of the 12 regular strings – 34.6″ (88cm) Length of the 4 shamash strings – 44.1″ (112cm) I can NOT do custom lengths on this string as I can not find someone in Israel to sell it to me by the spool. Maybe one day (pray hard). Also, this is just the string (instructions are NOT included). This special “WOOL – String Only” kit includes enough string to do 4 corners: These string lengths are enough to tie basic sets (Ashkenazi, Sephardic, Chassidic). You can also cut the strings (if your minhag allows it) to shorter lengths if needed. NOTE: This is NOT enough string to tie Karaite or Two-House styles. DYED ISRAELI WOOL I’ve been experimenting with the string that I import from Israel (picture on listing). My goal was to personally have a nice blue shamash (no simple task as wool and cotton take dyes differently). Now I have: blue, scarlet, and black. This takes a bit more time to make, but I’ve had many requests for it and sold several now for those of you who want the Israeli wool AND a blue shamash string (or black or scarlet). Posted above are some examples of what they look like (the blue is darker than turquoise, not quite as dark as navy – NOTE: batches vary on color just a little as this is a highly custom process using a mix of acid dyes designed for wool to lock the color in). This is my personal choice for my own TALLIT. Ashkenazi (4 to a set)7-8-11-13 (LORD is one, from the Shema) 7-8-11-13 loops with double knots: 7+8=15 (numerical value of YOD and HE) 11 (numerical value of VAV and HE), hence the first three series of loops represent the personal name of G-d and in the last series of loops, 13 is the value for the letters ALEPH CHET DALET. These numbers altogether represent the letters YHVH ECHAD – or “G-d is One” from the Shema in Deuteronomy 6:4. TZITZIYOT are about 14-15″ long (with a longer the shamash cord) length may vary a little. Sephardic (4 to a set) 10-5-6-5 (LORD) looped knots with double knots: 10 is the numerical value of YOD, 5 is the numerical value of HE, 6 is the numerical value of VAV, and 5 is the numerical value of HE, hence the series of loops (of individual knots) represent the personal name of G-d. These numbers altogether (26) represent the letters YHVH – or the Tetragrammaton, the name of the G-d of Israel. TZITZIYOT are about 14-15″ long (with a longer shamash cord) length may vary a little. Chassidic (4 to a set) 7-8-11-13 (LORD is one, from the Shema) 7-8-11-13 loops of knots with double knots: 7+8=15 (numerical value of YOD and HE) 11 (numerical value of VAV and HE), hence the first three series of loops represent the personal name of G-d and in the last series of loops, 13 is the value for the letters ALEPH CHET DALET The first group of 7 are tied in loops of 3-3-1 The second group of 8 are tied in loops of 2-3-3 The thrid group of 11 are tied in loops of 3-3-3-2 The fouth group of 13 are tied in loops of 1-3-3-3-3 TZITZIYOT are about 14-15″ long (with a longer shamash cord) length may vary a little. ATTACHING: I have had some questions on attaching TZITZIT to a TALLIT or Belt Loop. Here is a graphic to illustrate: SHALOM! ALL SETS NOW SHIP IN PROFESSIONAL RETAIL PACKAGING!
