#Other opinions of different numbers per section exist as well.<ref>R. Tavger, Kelil Techelet. Such other opinions exist including: Hida 10-5-6-5, Lekach Tov 7-7-7-7, and HaMaspik L’Ovdei Hashem which has 7 chulyot (segments) of 3 winds (like Rambam). More found on Petil Techelet's tying question [https://www.tekhelet.com/tzitzit-tying-questions-2/ page]. [https://www.sefaria.org/Mishnah_Berurah.11.70 Mishna Berurah 11:70], Rabbi Shlomo Malkho says that you use 10-5-6-5 as the number of winds per section to represent the letters of Hashem's name. Some have the practice of using 7-8-11-13 for their tallit gadol and 10-5-6-5 for their tallit kattan, according to Magen Avot (Orach Chaim 11:14).</ref> | #Other opinions of different numbers per section exist as well.<ref>R.

# Ashkenazim wind the string around regularly, but Sephardim use a "Chinese staircase," which keeps the string from unraveling.<ref>Magen Avot (Orach Chaim 11:14 fn. 14) cannot pin down a source for this custom.</ref> | # Ashkenazim wind the string around regularly, but Sephardim use a "Chinese staircase," which keeps the string from unraveling.<ref>Magen Avot (Orach Chaim 11:14 fn. 14) cannot pin down a source for this custom.</ref> | ||
# If a person winds the tzitzit strings and one of the windings only goes around the other strings half way, initially that should not be counted as a winding but after the fact it is acceptable.<ref>Rav Elyashiv (Ashrei Ha'ish 2:21). Yadot Hamishna p. 615 quotes Meorer Yeshaynim who wasn't sure if a half winding counts as a winding and says to avoid this he should add an extra half winding. However, he also quotes the Chazon Ish that a half winding does coutn as a winding.</ref> | |||
