Glad to have you here - I hope my content is useful for understanding Judaism and the theological perspectives and sacred practices that we hold dear in our community. Happy learning!
I did not - I bought it from The Tzitzit Project and they are awesome (if you check my tallit/tzitzit playlist you can find a video on it). Their website is www.tzitzitproject.com (as is their Instagram) and I highly recommend them!
It’s not cheap but I think they have a sliding scale (I would contact them to ask). Where in Europe are you? (If you’re comfortable sharing of course). The product is very lightweight and is shipped in a small bubble envelop so the shipping should not be much on account of weight but might still add up on account of distance. I ‘evangelize’ for the Tzitzit Project folks all the time because I love their product! ❤️✨
This may seem like an odd question, but how does one sew an atarah onto a tallit? I’ve been looking for ways and so far have not found a video on how to sew/attach, anyone know how to? Please let me know. Thank you.
It depends on the tallit. The atarah can be any decorative band, as simple or as elaborate as you want. If you make a tallit ‘from scratch’ from a beautiful piece of cloth or shawl, then you can stitch on the atarah like any other appliquéd fabric. If you already have a tallit and want to replace the atarah that’s already on there, you may want to remove and appliqué the atarah of your choice. Some Judaica stores sell atarot (plural) that you can stitch on or you can make your own from beautiful ribbon or trim. There are no set ‘rules’ about what an atarah should look like so you can be as creative as you wish! Hope this helps ✌️
Yes! Many women wear a tallit in the non-Orthodox Jewish world and there is excellent precedence for doing so in our tradition. Please click on ‘playlist’ and look for the tallit/tzitzit playlist where I address this topic extensively :-) Thanks for asking.
@@asmallsanctuary thank you! Another question is there a different in sizes and colors between men and women? If women wear the Tallit to church would it be a problem?
I just realized you are a rabbi, I am a minister! I’m a Torah observant Christian and I truly love I found you!

Thank you sister. I have an acrylic tallit but one day want to invest in a higher quality one. I do wear tzit tzit too and wash those by hand.
Classic woolen ones are pretty affordable. Thanks for stopping in and commenting :-)
Thank youuu very useful video, and happy hannuka 🎉
You are very welcome! Happy Hanukkah!
I put my tallit in a pillowcase and wash it with other light colours in the machine. Comes out fine.
Great hack! What machine setting do you use for washing it?
@@asmallsanctuary usual 40° warm wash.
This is cool!
Thank you!
Did you make that tallit katan? It's lovely. I got one from a women's company years and years ago but I don't think they are in business anymore.
I did not - I bought it from The Tzitzit Project and they are awesome (if you check my tallit/tzitzit playlist you can find a video on it).
Their website is www.tzitzitproject.com (as is their Instagram) and I highly recommend them!
@@asmallsanctuary thankyou so much. I'm going to agonise over the price and the shipping costs to Europe for a bit and then give in :-)

@@asmallsanctuary Thank you for replying and it was helpful. Thank you again.
Make sure the tread is 10p percent wool, man made or silk. Do not use cotton or a cotton blend.....
What size is that tallit?
It’s a size 50”. If you go to the seller’s website, they will specify the width in inches. I’m 5”5.
@@asmallsanctuary im 175cm is it good size 60/170cm i saw that size on one site on ebay?
@@levia971 I would say if you’re that height, get a 55” tallit. 50” will be short. Hope this helps!
How do I replace a tassel? It has become stained in an accident, I used bleach and now it’s discolored.
You can look at my tzitzit tying videos for instructions!
Thank you sister Shalom
You are so welcome.
Good
Thanks!
Does women ware this too?

@@asmallsanctuary thank you! Another question is there a different in sizes and colors between men and women? If women wear the Tallit to church would it be a problem?
@@asmallsanctuary this is why the question came from ruclips.net/video/QKw0PeljUas/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Ah yes, Women of the Wall. They are fighting a tough battle and it’s a very complicated story!
Well… I guess my first response would be to say that church is not a setting you’d wear a tallit in ;-)
