St. Patrick’s Day is March 17th! Usually, I don’t remember what day it is until my kid comes home with a shamrock-themed coloring page, but this year I’m thinking ahead! I think it’s so important to find moments to celebrate and have fun, especially since the world is a bit upside down at the moment.
St. Patrick’s Day is one of those fun little holidays that everyone celebrates a little differently. I know that giving St. Patrick’s Day gifts isn’t very traditional, but I love to make people smile with my crochet. A cute little crochet project is the perfect pick-me-up for a friend who’s going through a rough patch or a family member you haven’t been able to visit for a while.
Throughout this post I’ve peppered little gift giving ideas. I hope it will inspire you to make someone else’s day! Scroll down and see all the amazing St. Patrick’s Day crochet patterns we have in store for you today!
1. Shamrock and Lucky Clover Appliques
I love crochet appliques! They are the easiest and quickest way to make practically anything festive. This beautiful shamrock clover pattern is made with single, half double and double crochet hearts. I think it would look great on a hat, a hair pin, a brooch or a scarf. Go crazy!

7. Top of the Morning Hat
When someone says, “Top of the morning to you!” The proper response is, “And the rest of the day to you!” I’ve always loved that funny little Irish saying.
