This pattern is available from etsy.com for €4.84.

You can use the pattern to create your own Shiny Skull Cap! This mesh cap is designed to fit any size head, it features instructions for the cap itself and how to attach beads if you want.

This pattern is made to measure, which means it can be made with any yarn and hook size and you do not need to crochet the same gauge. It can be adjusted to any head size. You can also choose how long you want your mesh hat to be, it is worked in the round and in one piece.

I used Lana Grossa Glamour & Lang Yarns Baby Cotton and a 4mm hook, but you are free to use other yarn weights or hook sizes (like my testers did). The pattern also includes a tester lookbook to see different outcomes of the pattern with different types of yarn and head sizes.

You will need:
A crochet hook
A crochet hook 1 size smaller than your other hook
A darning needle
Scissors
23-65 grams of yarn
5 stitch markers
