It’s super practical and super doable. This is the tzitzis washing hack that will be your go-to once and for all.
Back in 2018, we shared all different ways to clean tzitzis in this post. When I showed my cleaning lady the post so she could wash my boys’ tzitzit without the strings getting ruined, she showed me the way she had been doing it for years! She learned this method in a different house. It’s similar to the sock method in this post, except that she uses a knee-high or cuts off the bottom of a ripped stocking instead of the sock. This is much more practical because the strings actually get clean through the stocking and its way easier to tie the stocking in a knot to secure it (socks need hairbands to stay secure).
Simply place your hand through the stocking and grab the end of the strings.
Pull them through the stocking
and tie it in a knot. Then, wash as normal. Simply untie the knot and remove the stocking when hanging to dry.

A trick I discovered that works well for us is this- tzitzis in mesh bag and as soon as they come out of the wash, hang and straighten the strings. Done! They dry nice and straight!
Yes! And tighten any knots that came loose while the strings are wet. Keeps them tighter than if you tie them when they’re dry.
I tried many methods until I settled with this. It’s a small mesh bag that’s a perfect size for tzitzis.
