Take one end of the yarn and begin wrapping it loosely around the palm of your hand, approximately 50 times. Cut a 5” long strand and secure that around the wrapped yarn, removing your hand. Tie the strand into a tight knot around the wrapped yarn.

Cut the yarn loops to form pom-pom. Put pom-pom aside for the time being.

Wrap the felt into a cone-shaped gnome hat using a wooden dowel (or pencil) to help wrap the felt around leaving a small opening at the cone tip. Glue the overlapping edges of the felt cone-shaped hat to hold in place.

Cut a piece of twine 20” long and fold in half. Tie the cut ends of the twine around the pom-pom. Thread the looped end of the twine through the hole at the top of the hat. Pull on the twine loop to force the hat on top of the pom-pom.

Glue one wood ball to the bottom edge of the hat. Glue two painted wood circles onto the front of the hat as shown.

Trim any really long and uneven yarn ends, while keeping the yarn in the center front the longest to mimic the gnome beard.
