Woven Cloth
A tallit is a Jewish prayer shawl which is worn over the outer clothes during the morning prayers and worn during all prayers on Yom Kippur. The tallit has special twined and knotted fringes known as tzitzit attached to its four corners. Most traditional tallitot (plural of tallit) are made of wool, silk or linen. Tallitot are often first worn by orthodox boys (when they turn 13) at their Bar Mitzvot. In Conservative and Reform Judaism it is now customary for girls to receive them on their Bat Mitzvot at the age of 12. The Kippah (skullcap or yarmulke) is a small hat or head covering
traditional Jewish communities, only men wear kippot and they are worn at all times (except when sleeping and bathing). In non-Orthodox communities some women also wear kippot, and people have different customs about when and where to wear them. The Reform movement has historically been opposed to wearing kippot, but in recent years it has become more common and accepted for both Reform men and women to cover their heads during prayer and Jewish study.
