A kippah (Hebrew) or yarmulke (Yiddish) is a small cloth cap worn by Jews. Traditionally it was worn only by men, but in modern times the push for equality between the sexes in the practice of Judaism has led some women to wear yarmulkes. Some Jews only wear yarmulkes while praying; others wear yarmulkes the entire day, making sure not to walk more than four cubits without head covering (especially outside).The basis for wearing a head covering is a story in the Talmud (tractate Shabbat).
