The Gnome's Cap is the Hat Mouse's reward for Craft Master, which asks a farm to craft every single recipe it can learn. That means every sprinkler, every keg and cask, the rarecrows, the totems, the bombs, the fences, the signs and the oddities that only appear at high skill levels or from deep in the mines. It is one of the last achievements most saves complete, and the cap is the green hood that marks it. Emily's makeover booth at the Desert Festival gives the same hood out at random, which is the only shortcut.
Location
The mouse keeps its hat counter in the ruined house below Cindersap Forest, and the cap appears there the day Craft Master is earned.
Chasing that achievement is largely a recipe hunt. Crafting recipes come from the five skills as they level, from villagers in the post, from shops, from Mr. Qi's room on the island and from the dwarf in the volcano, so finishing the list means pushing every skill to its limit rather than specialising. The in-game options include a setting that shows advanced crafting information, which puts a count beside each recipe and turns the hunt from guesswork into a checklist. Materials are the other half of the problem: several recipes need iridium, radioactive bars or dragon teeth, which pulls a farm into the Skull Cavern and the volcano before the last few items can be made.
The festival route is pure chance, since the booth gives one complete outfit a day across the festival and the cap is a single result in a wide pool.
Effect
The cap is a long green hood that comes to a point at the back, and anyone who has played an adventure game will recognise the silhouette: it looks a great deal like the cap worn by the hero of The Legend Of Zelda. It sits well with a green tunic and Dark Boots, and it is one of the few hats in the valley that reads as a costume rather than clothing.
Notes
Craft Master sits beside Full Shipment and Master Angler as one of the completion goals, and all three are needed before the mouse will offer its final hat, so a farm that earns the cap is usually well on the way to the whole shelf.
The mouse sells another cap to anyone who already has the achievement, so one can go on a pet while a spare stays with the farmer.
