Kippah Collection: Photo Update

It has been a long time since I posted photos of my kippah collection, so here are some I just took.  A number of new kippot have been added, and I have also changed how I organize the collection.  Now there is one stack of "business" kippot: my smaller ones, which I consider OK for work settings.  The remainder of the collection is stacked by materials: satins, velvets, silks, and other.

These are my "business kippot."  The top row were crocheted for me by a friend, as a Hannukah gift.  The next row is the rest of my business crochets.  Left to right: bi pride, gay pride, bought on Ben Yehuda street in Jerusalem, first ever,, second ever, crocheted by a different friend.  The next row has most of the suedes: pink from own Bat Mitzvah, purple from own Bat Mitzvah, from roommate's wedding, from high school graduation, from random Bar Mitzvah.  Bottom row: from random Bar Mitzvah, college graduation gift (and number 50!), came with Bat Mitzvah tallis, from random Bar Mitzvah.

 

These are my satins, mostly "beanies."  Top, left to right: from random Bat Mitzvah (but too nice to be a "beanie"); "beanie" from random wedding; "beanie" from random Bar Mitzvah.  Bottom, left to right: "beanie" from random Bat Mitzvah; "beanie" from same random Bat Mitzvah; "beanie" from random Bar Mitzvah.

The velvets! Left to right: from younger brother's Bar Mitzvah, ultra-Orthodox style, "hat" foundin family drawer.
