This basket is super functional and cute. Moms know, you can never have too much storage around the house. This basket is both a lovely home decor addition but also a functional storage space. It’s great for coffee tables, to use as a fruit basket, and looks great on shelves as well.

5. Handmade Crochet Bookmark – we love reading and moms who read!
Ok, I’m totally biased on this one, but who doesn’t love cozying up with a good book? This crochet bookmark pattern creates the cutest bookmark that’s perfect for gifting. You can even whip up a whole set of them in your moms favorite colors!
If you have a mom that loves bringing her books with her everywhere (hello, library bag), this cute crochet book sleeve will keep her books protected as she carries them around!
6. Bags on bags – crochet coin purse
I don’t think I’ve had a coin purse since I was a kid but boy did this bring back the good memories! I’m a firm believe that you can never have too many bags. They come in so handy! Little project holder? Cute date night purse? Spare change holder? This little bag can do it all. This free pattern features a zebra stripe pattern and adorable hardware.
7. Another one
Ok, last bag pattern (in this post), I swear. The Jet Set Bag is one of my favorite patterns to make! It uses a simple stitch and can be made either all in one color or dual-toned. Bonus: it fits everything you need for your day from laptops to your latest crochet project or book.
Happy Stitching! I can’t wait to see what patterns you all gift to your loved ones this mother’s day. As always, make sure to tag us on Insta @yarnthrift and use #yarnthrift.
These patterns are some of my favorite and make amazing mother’s day gifts when you’re in a pinch or want something handmade. Crochet gifts are so special to me because crochet can’t be replicated by a machine – crochet gifts are purely handmade and that just makes them feel so much more intimate.
