Yep as mentioned, Faux Fur is what gets the result - I got mine on Amazon a couple years back, a variety assortment of colors as cheap as I could find, I Still have pieces of all 4 colors after what must be 40 - 50 gnomes made & sold, I would estimate you can do maybe 80 to 100 out of that 4-pack.... There are multiple choices so you may want to shop around the customer reviews , as the quality and finish can be a key point (quality of the stuff I got was not terrible but could have been better, and most assuredly could have been better packed as some of the material came with a permanent crease in the fibers due to careless vacuum packing.)
