Materials Needed for This Hook Hat Gnome

Below are the materials I used to create all of the gnomes in this series. You should use fleece (or another stretchy material) to make assembly easy. You can add cotton or specialty fabric accents, however, ensure the base material has stretch.

  • fleece (in two colors)
  • faux fur
  • gnome nose (I used a 1 inch wood round)
  • fill and weight
  • hot glue gun and glue sticks
  • scissors
  • hook hat gnome pattern (linked below)

How to Assemble This Free Gnome Pattern

As this is a pattern exclusive to subscribers, there will be no images shared of construction. Please refer to the video above.

First, download and print the pattern pieces. Use scissors or a rotary cutter to cut 2 hat pieces and 2 body pieces from fleece.

Next, place the hat pieces right-sides together and assemble with hot glue (or sew with a narrow seam allowance of 1/8th, or up to 1/4 inch). Note that you will only glue or sew between the indicated bars on the pattern.

Place the large body piece right sides together, lining up the side edge. Glue or sew. Attach the bottom of the body (with front of fabric facing into the body).

Add weight and fill to the body after turning it right-sides out. Add fill to the hat after turning it right sides out.

Cut a piece of faux fur in your desired beard shape and size which can be determined after slipping the hat onto the body. Glue the fur beard on as well as the nose.

Finally, secure the gnome hat to the body. Take care to add glue just over the nose to adhere the front point of the hat. Decorate and display!
