You’re never too old for pink! Mom feels like a girl too and loves pink things:
How about this pretty shopping net with a heart and “Mama” lettering, for example?

The net measures approx. 40 x 50 cm. Thanks to the cotton yarn used, it is very sturdy and can hold a lot. When it’s not needed, it can be rolled up small and fits in a handbag. That means it also fits in your vacation suitcase and can be used as a beach bag on vacation.
The net is crocheted using the filet crochet technique. It’s easy and works up quickly. This technique is explained in detail in the pattern. There is a graphical chart for the design, but it is also written out round by round.
For this net, you need just under 300 g of cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m / 50 g.
Here you’ll find the pattern and all the details!
If Mom gets cold easily, she’s sure to love this pretty pink heart too:

It measures approx. 20 x 20 cm and serves as a cover for heat pillows, e.g. cherry pit, spelt, or grain pillows. These pillows are briefly warmed in the microwave, then placed inside the cover, and then provide wonderful dry (grain pillow) or moist (spelt pillow) heat that is retained for a long time.
With the bobble pattern on one side and the smooth pattern made of single crochet stitches on the back, you can regulate for yourself how much warmth you get.
For this pillow, you’ll need about 100 g of potholder cotton yarn (yardage approx. 85 m / 50 g). Make sure the yarn is heat-resistant—acrylic yarn is not suitable!
This way to the pattern for the heat pillow!
