"Speak to the Children of Israel and bid them that they make fringes on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of each corner a thread of blue (tekhelet). And it shall be for you as a fringe, that you may look upon it and remember all the commandments of G-d, and do them..." (Numbers 15:38-39)

Yomim Noraim Talit for the High Holidays

As Rosh Hashana quickly approaches, P'til Tekhelet is offering its special Yomim Noraim Talit for the High Holidays. This is an elegant, finest quality, all-wool, white-on-white talit, evoking a sense of simplicity and purity.

The garment (size 70) is manufactured by Mishkan HaTekhelet, and tied by P'til Tekhelet according to the Sefer HaChinuch (one full strand of tekhelet per corner). The single tekhelet string is a reminder of all the mitzvot, as recited in the third paragraph of the Sh'ma.

The price of this talit is $130, including shipping and handling. This price is only for the Yomim Noraim Talit. Please visit our special Yomim Noraim Talit Order Page.

Customized orders will be charged according to year-round prices. Please arrange your order now, using our order form or by email.

Spearheaded by our supporters: Every $10 donated to our Tzahal (IDF) Fund, is matched by P'til Tekhelet to provide tekhelet at a 50% discount for a soldier. Receipts for donations over $180 are available for U.S. tax deductions. To donate, please send us an email.
