Supplies

Wool-Ease Thick & Quick Yarn, Grey Marble
Free Gnome Hat pattern (a semi circle)
Felt in color of your choosing (I used Olive, Vineyard and Mulberry from Benzie Designs)
Fabric Scissors
Wood ball, solid unfinished, ¾” diameter
Small decorative craft button in coordinating color
Hot glue gun with clear glue sticks
Ruler

Directions

Print out the gnome hat pattern. Place the pattern on top of the felt sheet and cut along the solid line.

Cut an 18” long strand of yarn.

Continue cutting additional strands (you will need approximately 30 strands per wine bottle gnome).

Apply a dab of glue to the felt hat about 2” from the side along the curved edge.

Press the middle of one strand of yarn into the glue.

Continue gluing the remaining yarn strands in a row (towards the straight edge of the hat) that measures 4” across.

For any remaining strands, glue them over top of the strands that have already been glued down.

Fold over the loose ends of the yarn away from the felt hat.

Next, fold the one corner of the felt hat inwards as shown. Then wrap the felt into a cone-shaped gnome hat.

Glue the overlapping edges of the felt cone-shaped hat to hold in place.

Glue the decorative button to the top of the hat at the overlapping point.

Center one wood ball in the middle of the yarn, just below the edge of the hat and glue in place.

Trim any really long and uneven yarn ends.

Place your gnome wine bottle cover over a bottle of wine or liquor. Feel free to move the gnome beard around to reveal the bottle underneath. You could even braid it!
