Description
The Black White Houndstooth Kippah is a four-panel high-contrast glen-plaid yarmulke, sold in 10 sizes (dome 1 to 7 plus 16, 18 and 20cm flat) at $9.99. The ground is a pale silver-white, and on it a bold black Prince of Wales check is built from blocks of jagged houndstooth and thin stripes. At the crown the four panels meet on a dense square of houndstooth, which gives the top view a pinwheel effect. The fabric has a soft, knitted-looking texture, and the rim is bound in the same plaid. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it
Of the glen-check kippot, this is the brightest: the pale silver ground makes the black houndstooth blocks jump out, so it looks crisp and graphic even from across a room. It suits black-and-white outfits especially well. Shoppers comparing it with the cotton Black White Houndstooth should know that one is an even, all-over dogtooth, while this is a larger plaid with houndstooth sections.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the two black and white houndstooth kippot?
This one is a glen plaid on a soft, knit-look fabric. The other, titled Houndstooth Kippah – Black White Cotton, is an even, all-over houndstooth on cotton.
Is the white bright white?
It is a pale silver-white, a little softer than pure white.
Why does the top look like a pinwheel?
Each panel is cut from a different part of the plaid, so the check changes direction at the seams and meets in a dense houndstooth square at the crown.
What suit colours match it?
Black, charcoal and mid grey work well. It can clash with brown or navy patterns.
How should I clean it?
Dab marks with a damp cloth and mild soap and let it dry flat. Do not scrub, which can fuzz the surface.
