Aleph Beis Kippah, Black Velvet Light Blue Letters Yarmulke

This Aleph Beis Kippah is a four-panel black velvet yarmulke with the Hebrew alphabet embroidered in pale blue, made in 5 domed sizes at $9.99. The letters from Aleph onward are stitched in raised, ice-blue thread in a continuous band around the lower edge of the dome, so the whole Aleph Beis circles the kippah. The velvet crown is plain black with a short pile, finished with a narrow black rim. It is part of the Rachel Ostroy x iKippah collection. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it

The Aleph Beis is often the first thing a child learns to read, and this design puts the whole alphabet around the kippah in a soft ice-blue that shows up well on black velvet. Because the letters sit in a band at the edge, the top stays plain, so it still looks like a proper velvet kippah for shul. It makes a natural gift for an upsherin or a boy starting school, and it comes in adult size 5 too.

Size guide

Sizing is guidance, not a promise — heads vary. When you are between two sizes, the larger one sits better.
