I know some people get annoyed with Valentine’s Day, but it isn’t all Hallmark cards and fancy dinners. It can really be a very sweet holiday, and it doesn’t have to be romantic. Valentine’s Day is a great time of year to take the time to tell your loved ones that you care. Crochet a Valentine’s gift for your kids to remind them of your love. Give a crochet gift to a neighbor or teacher to make them smile. Send a gift to a long-distance friend to remind them that you care. There’s so many things to crochet for Valentine’s Day. It’s also a great way to spread love and kindness. Don’t forget that kindness is contagious!
1. Valentine’s Day Mug Cozy
Our first Valentine’s Day crochet pattern is an adorable and easy red mug cozy. The button enclosure makes it works on both mugs and to-go cups. Stitching on the heart instead of crocheting one is a great time-saver too!

2. Valentine’s Day Gift Bag
Crochet bags are an adorable and thoughtful way to package gifts on Valentine’s Day. Fill this bag with candies, love notes or whatever you want! The pattern is quick and easy enough for you to make a bunch of these. The best part is that this gift bag can be used again and again.

3. Valentine’s Day Basket
Baskets make a great presentation and can continue to be used by the recipient to store and display things. The classic V-day colors on this crochet basket are perfectly festive for the big day and of course you can’t have Valentine’s Day without hearts!

4. Valentine’s Teddy bear
A tiny teddy is the perfect way to show someone you care. I think this would make a swell crochet gift for an adult or for a child. Using felt for the heart and nose is a great time-saver. You could even add a keychain or a hanging loop, so he can be displayed.

5. Valentine’s Day Calendar
Have you ever thought of making an advent calendar for Valentine’s Day? This designer filled each day of her calendar with a little kindness activity for her kids to do. I think filling the days with love notes or chocolates would also be a fun way to count down to Valentine’s.

6. Valentine Heart Coaster
Heart shaped coasters are a fun and functional Valentine’s Day crochet idea. The solid design and 5” size of these hearts make them perfect for coasters. I think this gift would be extra special in a set of 4 or 6 with all different colors. I would make these for a nice neighbor or teacher.

10. Valentines Crochet Notebook Sweater
Ahh, there’s nothing quite as sweet as that new notebook smell for the writer, doodler or designer in your life. A crochet cover is a great way to personalize your gift and also keep it safe so, it will stay in good condition and last a long time!
