For the children and/or teens in your life, these free patterns for fingerless mitts and gloves make wonderful gifts as the weather gets colder

Back when my younger daughter was in elementary school, I was walking with her and noticed her covering her mouth with her hands and blowing on them in an attempt to warm them up.

I said to her, “It looks like you could use some mittens or gloves.” “Uh-huh!” she said, as she continued to try to warm up her poor chilly hands.

Bhren’s Fingerless Gloves: Here is a pattern that will fit bigger children and teenagers. This is the one I chose for my younger daughter (who is already almost the size of her big sister!). I liked that it has separate fingers and uses DK-weight yarn, which I prefer for fingerless gloves.

Hooray for Me Gloves: This is another larger child/teenager pattern with separate fingers. I’m absolutely fascinated by her method of using double knitting to make the fingers!

Just Enough Mitts: I like that this pattern creates a very small mitt, perfect for transitioning from summer to fall or winter into spring. I also like the seed stitching. This is a good pattern for bigger children or teenagers, too.

Tween to Teen Fingerless Mitts: I am a big fan of ribbing when it comes to knitting for kiddos, because I always worry about fit! These will be nice and snug for older children up to teenagers, and as a bonus, it’s definitely unisex.

Half-Pint Fingerless Gloves: Wondering where the smaller child patterns are? They start right here! These adorable mitts are perfect for toddlers on up. As a bonus, there’s a set of directions for matching mitts for mama, too.

Zigzag Fingerless Gloves: If you don’t mind a little seaming, these mitts are sure to be a hit with absolutely everyone you knit them for! You can make these for children as well as adults — everyone will love the fun zigzag design.

Knucks: Believe it or not, this incredibly popular fingerless glove pattern comes in a kid’s size, and it really does fit young children! This is still one of my all-time favorite fingerless glove patterns. The embroidery options are such fun.

Leap!: These fingerless lovelies are designed to showcase pretty yarn rather than a particular stitch pattern. Variations are available for both mitts and gloves, and you can make them for children up to adults.

Glove Bites: I love these stylish mitts that fit older children and teenagers; they feature fun ruffly cuffs. We can’t expect any less from a fabulous Vickie Howell pattern!
