Row 2: INC 6 (12)
Row 3-4: SC 12 (12)
Row 5: DEC 6 times (6)
Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing, stuff with fiberfill, then weave tail through the remaining stitches and pull tight to close. Leave a tail to attach with. You will attach the nose after you’ve attached the beard.

Beard (In White)

Cut pieces of your Bulky, white yarn to double the length you want your beard. I cut mine into 7” pieces. You can make as many or few as you would like for your gnome, I did 13 pieces for mine. Take a single piece and fold it in half. You will be looping these through and over themselves on the back loops from Row 50 in the hat. I started in the loop opposite the finished knot in the piece and worked equally on both sides. Once your beard is attached you can cut it evenly or at an angle or however you would prefer.

Now you can attach the nose. I used the tail from the nose to attach it to the inside of the hat in the center of the beard. You basically want the edge of the hat to drape over the nose and secure it to the inside of the brim so no off color yarn shows through the hat.
