Question
Am I allowed to strengthen a knot on the tzitzit on shabbat? Not making one but just pulling it together if it came a little loose.
Answer
No, you should not do this on Shabbat. If you have problems of your Tzitzit becoming loose on Shabbat, try wet the bottom knot on and tighten it on Friday.
