Handmade gifts are always the best and here are some fun themed crochet gift basket ideas for you to use this holiday season and all year round.
Below I have put together several gift baskets made mostly with crocheted items. Most items are quick and easy projects with a few medium to large size projects mixed in.
Crochet Gift Basket Ideas
These crochet gift baskets are only meant to be an inspiration for you. Don’t feel obligated to make every item for your gift basket.

The recipient will still love the thought and effort put into their gift.

Let’s Learn to Crochet Basket
Ok, so this basket does not have any crocheted items in it but I thought it would be a fun basket to include. If you have someone you want to teach to crochet, consider making them a gift basket with all they would need to get started crocheting.
This gift basket could include:
– Balls or Skeins of Yarn
– 1-2 Crochet Hooks
– Scissors
– Yarn Needle
– A Hook Pouch
– 12 Beginner Crochet Pattern E-book
The E-book is a free gift that is available to all my newsletter subscribers. Subscribing is free and the book is a great way to teach new crocheters how to read very simple patterns. This book is designed for personal use but it is fine to print a few copies to include in a gift basket like this.
I hope you enjoy seeing these crochet gift basket ideas. If you have any ideas for gift basket themes that I did not include, let me know in the comments below and I may add that to the list to help inspire others.
