I’ve personally heard this from at least four independent sources. If someone can get more info about string ratio, tying method, and a picture, that would greatly help. -Rafi Hecht From Yehoshua Yankelewitz: “My friend Refoel Holiday (originally from Monsey, he learned in Zilberman’s in the OC for a while) was with his Rosh Kollel…

R’ Rappaport was one of the people that started the whole process going. Without him it’s hard to say if the rest would be wearing Techeiles today.
