Those Headcoverings Webpages

My "Those Headcoverings" blog is a place to gather news and notes as they are posted online, and to share. Inclusion here does not mean that I do or do not agree with all of the teaching or opinion you will find contained in these sites - or that you will agree with all of the others' opinions.

My "Those Headcoverings" home page links you to various informative websites about headcovering in various traditions and for other reasons. Besides general links at the home page, I have specific pages with links for:

~Christian Headcovering~
; ~Islamic Headcovering~; ~Jewish Headcovering~; ~Coverings for Cancer~

My "Those Headcoverings Illustrated" webpage will link you to many (not all!) of the websites which provide pretty pictures of headcoverings, how-to instructions on tying scarves or etc., sales sites of various kinds of head coverings, and some with patterns and how to make headcoverings.

"Diversity Of The World's Cultures Hats And Caps"

Observation:
Hats and headresses are a tribute to the diversity of the world's cultures. Not only does the variety of shapes and materials speak to human ingenuity and creativity, but knowledge of the hat can provide insight into a culture. Some of the most decorative and colorful headdresse are worn by people who wear little else in the way of clothing. And seemingly, those who have the widest choices of fashion, wear the least imaginative hats, if they wear any at all.
