Cold ears

I realized the other day that I have a nice coat, and a nice scarf, and even some lovely warm mittens (which are slightly too big but I can fix that), but I don't have a warm hat. If I'm waiting for the bus in 30-degree weather I need a warm hat. I'm thinking of knitting a Norwegian hat, maybe the "Traditional." But what colors? Gray and blue, to match the scarf, or gray and red, to match the coat and mittens? Suggestions and advice are welcome!

Well, not looking at any of them myself, the obvious solution to me seems to red and blue to match everyting!

Oh, I love that pattern. I'd vote for blue and gray to match the scarf. Either way would be lovely though.

Why choose either? You could do the body of the hat in blue and grey, switch out the grey for a red band on the bottom and use a red tassel. Then you go with everything!

"Traditional" is very nice. I'm also partial to "Fenten".

I'd probably match the scarf. Especially because I have so much leftover scarf yarn in my stash. Do you have equal amounts of yarn, or could that be a deciding factor?
