Textured Mesh Scully Cap Pattern

This is what I've been working on for the last two days.
It's a very simple cap pattern that works up quickly.

These images are clickable. Believe it or not, they're the same hat - just different lighting. I'm showing both because my styrofoam head is really petite (or I have a really fat head) so that the hat looks quite different on her. It's a fitted cap, not a bucket hat.

Note – I made the adult cap version with an I hook and worsted weight cotton. Had I used another fiber yarn that has more stretch, this hat would have been too large for me. For Acrylic, wool or blends I would recommend an H hook for an average adult.
