Sometimes you just want a project that’s fun, simple, and doesn’t take weeks to finish. That’s where quick weekend crochet projects come in!
Whether you’re looking to add a new accessory to your wardrobe, whip up a gift for a friend, or simply enjoy a relaxing couple of days with your yarn and hook, here are some quick and easy crochet projects you can finish in a weekend.
Lightweight shawls are quick to make with open stitches or chunky yarn and perfect for layering on cool evenings. Mittens work up faster than you’d think and make thoughtful gifts, while scarves remain a classic; chunky for speed or lightweight for style.
Hats are another weekend favorite, from slouchy beanies to snug caps topped with a pom pom. For something practical, try a small tote or market bag, or go mini with a pouch for coins or hooks. You can also add flair with crocheted charms like flowers or hearts, or craft some sweet hair bows in minutes.
The best part about these weekend projects is how versatile they are. You can try new stitches, experiment with color combinations, and use up leftover yarn from bigger projects.
So grab your hook, pick out your favorite yarn, and dive into one (or more!) of these 18 quick crochet ideas. By the time Monday rolls around, you’ll have a brand-new handmade piece to show off and the satisfaction of finishing something beautiful in just a weekend.
Each pattern is free from *Yarnspirations and comes with a printable pdf. Click on the pattern to view!
