All Matched Up

*All Matched Up* is a chunky hat. Perfect for those snowy winter days. **Buy *All Linked Up* at the same time and you'll get this one for half-price** Worked from the crown down All Matched Up is easy to fit to any size head – just keep increasing until you reach your ideal size then spiral down until the length is just right. Add in the optional curved ear-warmers if they take your fancy, weave in your ends, pull your cowl around your neck and your hat on your head and you’re ready to face a blizzard! **Gauge:** The gauge is not crucial for this project. I suggest trying the pattern with the suggested hook size or one size larger or smaller to find a fabric you love. **Size:** The sample includes the optional ear-warmers and is 9½ inches from top of crown to bottom of ear-warmer and has a circumference of 22 inches at the brim (24 cm by 56 cm). The hat is worked in a spiral from a magic ring at the top of the crown. You can modify your hat for a perfect fit by working more (or fewer) increase rounds for a bigger (or smaller) hat; by working more (or fewer) spiral rounds for a taller (or shorter) hat; and by adding the optional ear-warmers (or not). The wrong side of the work is just as beautiful as the right side and the fabric is reversible, so you can even wear your hat inside out! US crochet terms are used throughout the pattern. The equivalent UK terms are referenced in the abbreviations. The pattern is written not charted and has been tested. **Acknowledgements:** My heartfelt thanks to my fantastic team of pattern testers and reviewers: Bethany, Marina and Sally.
