Tested and approved pattern.

Tapestry-style sc forms a perfectly shaped kippah (yarmulke) for the discriminating person. This pattern is easily adapted to child-adult by increasing number of rounds, or working in lighter-weight yarn for a baby or young child (fingering suggested with a C hook). Otherwise, you can easily adjust the width by adding or leaving off a few rounds.

Skills: for adventurous beginner or intermediate crocheters
