@ Barbara - I must appeal to authority on this issue and will quote from the following:

I recommend the following link: http://www.bibletruth.cc/Body_tzitzit.htm

The command to wear tassels comes from Numbers 15:37-41. The PURPOSE was to serve as a PHYSICAL reminder that they were the covenant people of God to REMEMBER to keep the commandments of God and to be a holy people unto God.

Excerpts from www site:

The Greek manuscripts describe the area of the garment she reached out and touched as “the edge of his cloak.” The Greek word here, translated as “edge” is kra,spedon, which the lexicons translate as “fringe, edge; tassel.” This is clearly a reference to the tzitzit which makes up the “fringe” of his cloak, which all Torah observant Jews of Yahusha’s day wore in obedience to the command.

Thus, what we have in this account, is the real, not imagined, faith of a woman who believed both the Scriptures and that Yahusha’ is the Messiah. So, she trusted that by touching his “wings” (Hebrew word for “corner” in Num 15:38 is “canaph” meaning ‘wing, winged, border, corner, shirt’ and Malachi 4:2 mentions “healing in his wings”) she would be healed. And Yahusha’ commended her and rewarded her faith with the healing of her twelve year disease.

Hope this helps.
