Mittens are characterised by having a separate compartment for the thumb and a common compartment for the other fingers. Mittens can be worn by both children and adults and are almost a necessity to own when the winter season is upon us.

The good thing about knitted mittens is that it is a manageable knitting project to get started with. At the same time, you get to enjoy the results every single year. If you don't need any more mittens for yourself, then home knitted mittens are guaranteed to be a perfect winter gift for someone you love. The gift will be super personalised and wonderfully useful.

On this website, you can explore a large selection of patterns for knitted mittens. The patterns are for adults, children and babies, and they offer many different knitting techniques. So there is something for every knitter's taste.

Some very popular mittens that appeal to many people are mittens with a Nordic pattern. These mittens look great and are sure to please most people. So, if you love knitting patterns and playing with beautiful colour combinations, then Nordic patterns might be for you. Find a pattern with a Nordic pattern here.

Other very popular mittens to knit are mittens with a textured pattern. These mittens are usually knitted in one colour, so if you are looking for a pair of simple - but at the same time super beautiful - mittens, then mittens with a textured pattern might be the one for you. 

Mittens can also be knitted in many other ways and with different techniques. These include cables, ribbing and full satin stitch. These techniques also make for some incredibly beautiful mittens with fine details.

As you can see from the pictures, many of our mitten patterns come as part of a set. This means that several patterns contain both the pattern for a pair of beautiful mittens and the pattern for e.g. a hat, a headband, a neck or a pair of socks to match the mittens. With one of these patterns, you can easily get ready for the winter season and keep your hands, ears and feet warm.

When it comes to choosing the yarn to knit your mittens, it is a good idea to choose a slightly thick and warm yarn. Most of our mitten patterns use yarns that are 100% wool or a blend of wool and mohair, for example. With these yarns you are guaranteed to keep your fingers warm. At the same time, the yarns are delicious and easy to knit with. When choosing yarn, it is also important that the yarn is soft and not scratchy. That way, the mittens will feel the best possible against the skin.
