i just thought about it, and i’ve never seen someone who wears the yerushalmi style kippah with tefillin on.
Is it even possible?

June 18, 2013 3:53 am at 3:53 am #959575jewishfeminist02MemberMy husband used to have long hair (years before I knew him; he looks so different in those old pictures!!) He says that he would just pull his hair back before putting on tefillin.

June 18, 2013 5:15 am at 5:15 am #959577rebdonielMemberIt’s like a Breslov Na Nach kippah, only without any writing. Large, white, knitted, with a little peak on top, and worn by a few Yerushalmi hasidim.
June 18, 2013 6:06 am at 6:06 am #959578playtimeMemberI think they only wear the white knitted kippot on Shabbos. That would explain why you’ve never seen them wearing tefillin.
June 18, 2013 6:28 am at 6:28 am #959579NechomahParticipantOK, well those (and as far as almost all kippas that I’ve seen) are worn on the top and back of head, not the forehead, where the tefillin go. I’m not sure what’s the question.
June 18, 2013 11:39 am at 11:39 am #959580HrolfrMemberyerushalmi kippot (esp. the breslov type) cover the hairline almost completely. the way ive seen it worn, theres no way tefillin could fit over.
i guess wearing it on shabbat only makes sense.

The yerushalmi kappelach are not at all like the NaNach headgear. Not on shape size or way they are worn. The NaNachs are more similar to the Bucharian yarmulkas in size and shape.
And it’s not a “few” chasidim. The Yerushalmim wear them. They put on tefillin just like anyone who wears a normal sized yarmulka does. A better question is how do those who wear tiny little kippot put on teffilin, they have almost no head covering at all.
