Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

There are so many mother’s day gift ideas that you can see in a store or online, but why not make something too?

Most moms say they don’t need anything, but what about a thoughtful handcrafted surprise?

You can make your mom a handmade gift in her favourite colours.

*Don’t forget to pin and share!*

Mother’s Day Gift Guide

I put together a few gifts for mom with plenty of handmade goodies for you to choose from.

Giving you mom something that you have made yourself, will be really special.

Best Mother’s Day Gifts

The best mother’s day presents, in my opinion, are those that have been handmade.

With time spent crafting something amazingly unique with your own two hands, what’s not to love?!

From a cosy infinity scarf, a clutch for moms vacation or an easy pair of wrist warmers, you will just have to get those needles out.

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Take a look at this roundup of gift ideas for mom and see what you can knit or crochet.

1. Triangle Scarf

Make your mom a knitted triangle scarf with this easy beginner level pattern.

The triangle scarf can be worn in a number of ways and is made with a lightweight tape yarn.

This makes it great to wear in spring/summer and you can pair this gift with some new sunglasses, a bunch of mom’s favourite flowers or a new book.

2. Bamboo Clutch

The bamboo clutch bag would make a great gift – with its interesting design.

You can make one in any colour and add bamboo handles or plastic handles to finish.

The right size for the summer, this clutch will definitely be a hit with your mom!

3. Arm Warmers

Perhaps your mom would like a pair of arm warmers?

Does she drive a lot or type all day and get cold hands?

Then this easy beginner level pattern could be just the thing, they knit up fast too, so great for a last minute gift.

4. Crochet Clutch

If crochet is more your thing, you might like this easy crochet clutch pattern.

Made with mixtape yarn and tee shirt yarn, this clutch can be made in a couple of hours.

Great for vacations and drinks on the beach at sunset!

5. Mommy and Me Hats

Mommy and me matching hats are also a great gift to give to your loved ones.

Make these easy ribbed beanie hats in any colour combination.

Available in two sizes only  – adult and baby, you can make them go with any mom and me outfits!

6. Dog Sweater

Is your mom a dog mom? Mine is!

Her dogs are her furry babies and she showers them with gifts including outfits, treats, toys and more. 

For the dog mom in your life, make her happy with a handmade dog sweater (available in three sizes).

7. Outlander Knitting Patterns

Is your mom a HUGE fan of the TV series Outlander?

Then take a look at this collection of Outlander knits and make your mom something a sassenach would wear!

From fingerless gloves, arm warmers, cowls and more – going through the stones has never been so stylish!

8. Infinity Scarf

A stylish mom needs a chunky scarf to keep warm and cosy!

Make this easy knit seed stitch infinity scarf with bulky yarn.

The scarf will look awesome made in any colour.

9. Oversized Cardigan

If your mom loves to be cosy, then this oversized cardigan would make a great gift!

Wrapping up in a blanket-like cardigan is so relaxing on cold days.

Available in 4 sizes this cardigan is knit with super bulky yarn.

10. Knit Hat Patterns

If your mom is into knitting or crochet, then why not get her some valuable maker tools.

Fuel mom’s hobby with books, knitting supplies and project totes that you know she will use.

You could also get some supplies to make a knit kit – fancy yarn and needles to go with a pattern you found online (*cough, like something from my site, cough*).

Whatever your mom is into, I hope that you have found some gift ideas from this list!
