The Jewish Kasket or Kasketel (קאסקעט קאסקעטל)




In the hat shop of  Mr Sanders (Sanders Hat Corp.,4106 14th Ave.,Borough Park, Brooklyn, New York 11219, USA) I bought this kasket.
This kasket or kasketel (קאסקעט קאסקעטל) is worn by hasidic boys above the kippah on shabbat. Some belz jewish kids wear them also during the week.

      When I was in Brooklyn, Krausz had it in stock. I don't remember the price. But it was not expensive.

    1. Sorry, but I don't know where to find such an instruction. The only thing I can recommend is to buy one cap and to check how it is made.
