# | # Some say that ideally, we are strict to follow the opinion of Rabbeinu Tam <ref>Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim 14:1</ref> that boys beneath the age of 13 and women should not tie Tzitzit for a man whose obligation it is to wear them. Though in principle women and minors are kosher for making kosher Tzitzit, Rabbeinu Tam holds that only the person who is obligated in the mitzvah should create the object of the mitzvah.
