It’s time to celebrate dads with Father’s Day this month! I find that there are so many crochet patterns out there for women and children, but not many father’s day crochet patterns (other than the obligatory hat and scarf set). So I’ve scoured the interwebs to bring you some fun (and some quirky) gifts that you can whip up for your dad this Father’s day. Check out my favourite Father’s Day crochet patterns below!
Cozy crochet slippers
Keep dad’s feet cozy with this free father’s day crochet pattern for comfy (and durable) crochet slippers by knitted-patterns.com. The pattern gives instructions for a number of different shoe sizes.
Another fun option would be to make dad some Animal Slippers!
Textured washcloth
Great for the garage / workshop!
While the picture of this project may not look that manly, this textured wash cloth is a wonderful gift for any DIYing dad. Why not make a few – they can be used in the garage or workshop to wipe mucky hands, to polish the car or wipe down after a gym session.
Moustache cosy
I just LOVE these multipurpose cozies by Yarnspirations. Very quirky and hipster. These cozies can be used on mugs or on jars or bottles and the blog post also includes a delicious steak rub recipe, just for dad. Pair this with some fancy coffee beans and a decorated cookie jar filled with his favourite biscuits.
Crochet golf club covers
These crochet golf club covers by Repeat Crafter Me are fantastic for any golf loving dad! Work them up in your dad’s favourite color and decorate with crochet applique or pom-poms.
Split level jumper
This fantastic pattern by A Crocheted Simplicity would make a very special gift for dad.
Captain America blanket
Keep your superhero snuggly and warm with a superhero blanket.
Crochet wrist wallet
This project works up very quickly and is super useful, particularly if your dad likes to go to the gym or out for a run – you could even add some reflective fabric! Here is a great, free wrist wallet pattern.
Tie and bowtie set
Make sure dad looks really trendy with these free Father’s day crochet patterns for a skinny tie and bow tie set by Susie Johns.
Cable beanie
A cabled beanie makes a super stylish gift for any dad. I love working in neutral tones, but you could also make one in the colours of dad’s favourite sports team.
V-neck sleeveless jumper
There are so many knitted jumpers out there but very few crocheted ones for adults, so I was thrilled to come across these free Father’s day crochet patterns for v-neck sleeveless jumpers. Here is a stunning trellis work jumper by Lesley Arnold Hopkins
Crochet couch caddy
Such a clever idea by The Underground Hooker! This pattern is very easy to adapt for your dad’s favourite spot on the couch.
There is enough space for the remote, game controllers, a book and snacks!
Guitar pick holder keychain
Is your dad a guitar player? Then I think he will love this crocheted guitar pick holder keychain by This Bee’s Honey.
Crochet book
This pattern book has some really excellent crochet garment patterns, specifically designed for men. While the book is not free, I’d still like to highly recommend it!
Once you have finished crocheting your special Father’s day gift why not have a look at some of these creative gift wrapping ideas. What are some of your favourite Father’s day crochet patterns?
Hi,
I am trying to make a last minute gift for my sons for Christmas (I was unable to make and celebrate before Christmas so trying to get easy fast nice things now) and the links for the wrist wallet are all dead and lead nowhere.
Can you fix them please?
I have been looking at your site today and see that you also have written a book for the 3D squares! I have been looking for those patterns and thank you for writing the book!
Linda
Thank you so much for letting me know about this! 🙂 And happy stitching
Hi, Only just found your site. Love the unusual patterns. I’d be grateful for some more baby patterns.
I’m dying to try Tunisian crochet. Just waiting for a long hook.
