ITEMS NEEDED:
C-clamp
Key ring (1 inch diameter)
Tape measure
Place mat (to protect table from c-clamp)
Scissors
Safety pins (1 inch size)
Cotton crochet thread - colors Royal blue and White
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.) Attach c-clamp to a table, handle up, with the place
mat curved around the table edge. Tighten lightly to avoid table
damage. Place key ring over handle and shaft (fig 1).
FIG 1
2.) Cut three 22 inch lengths of white crochet thread
Cut one 35 inch length of blue
crochet thread
3.) Even up one end of the four lengths of thread and
fold in half so that the white threads are folded in half with the one
end of the blue thread longer (FIG 2).
FIG 2
4.) Keeping the relationship of the threads, slide one end through the key ring and hold taut. (FIG 3).
FIG 3
5.) Mark the length of the safety pin (1") on the c-clamp
for a reference. (FIG 4).
This allows the pin to swing through
the loop later, if necessary.
FIG 4
6.) Keeping the ends even, make your 1st half of a knot at the reference mark. (FIG 5).
FIG 5
7.) Make the 2nd half of the knot (complete the knot). All ends should be even except one end of the blue thread. (FIG 6)
8.) Next, hold all ends together except the long blue one; and twist the blue thread around the others 7 times keeping the windings snug (not too tight) with no spaces between the wound blue thread. (FIG 7)
FIG 7
9.) Separate the threads 4 x 4 with one blue one on each side. (FIG 8)

FIG 12
14.) Pull the ends completely through the loop and slide threads tight to the safety pin. (FIG 13)

Remember, wearing tseetseeyot is similar to today's idea of "tying a string around your finger" to remember to do something. Yahweh commanded those committed to him to wear tassels (tseetseeyot) to remind themselves to keep his commandments.
Numb 15:38 (BBE) Say to the children of Israel that through
all their generations they are to put on the edges of their robes an ornament
of twisted threads, and in every ornament a blue cord;
39 So that, looking on these ornaments, you may keep
in mind the orders of {Yahweh} and do them; and not be guided by the desires
of your hearts and eyes, through which you have been untrue to me:
40 And that you may keep in mind all my orders and do
them and be {set apart} to your {Mighty One}.
