Distance Between the Knot and the Tzitzit Garment

Question

What distance should there be between the edge of the garment and the first knot of the tzitzit?

Answer

Hello and blessings 

There is no need for any gap. 

On the contrary, it is advisable to tighten the knot somewhat, so that it rests against the side of the garment and the tzitzit hang down over the corner.
