Are you looking for a new pair of gloves for next winter? Instead of buying expensive knitwear from the shops, you can knit your own next pair of men's gloves. Whether for yourself or as a gift, there are many different models and designs to choose from. Choose your favourite gloves according to your taste. Not only will they keep your hands warm, but they will also complement your outfit with beautiful accessories that may even look good with your hat and scarf.

There are mainly three varieties of men's gloves available. Fine finger gloves, gloves without fingertips as well as simple gripper gloves, which are also called mittens. While mittens are more for protecting children from the cold or for use in the snow, finger gloves are often used as a fashion accessory. If the fingertips are missing, you can use them outside for many precise tasks.
Gloves that enclose each finger individually are classic finger gloves. They are worn when you don't want to restrict the movement of your fingers, but still want to keep them warm. At the same time, they look chic and belong to the absolute winter basics in every wardrobe. Whether simple black gloves or coloured versions - there are suitable knitting patterns for men's gloves for every business and leisure outfit.
In sub-zero temperatures, simple finger gloves are hardly enough to keep out the cold. This is especially true if you are planning a longer stay outdoors with your gloves on. You can keep your hands really warm with mittens, which only allow your hands simple gripping movements. Individual fingers are not knitted here, so this is the perfect model for you if you are a beginner in knitting.
Do you also have to work outside in winter, for example at the local market, in a gardening company or on a construction site? The necessary dexterity that you need for many activities is only guaranteed with gloves without fingers. Here, the front fingers remain free so that you can continue to work precisely, but still keep your hands warm. These gloves are knitted like classic finger gloves, except that you leave out the fingertips.
Tip: Cuffs and wrist warmers also give you a lot of freedom but still provide cosy warmth. They keep your wrists or forearms nice and warm. Take a look at the knitting patterns for these variations.
As a beginner, you might not want to start with the most difficult of knitting patterns for men's mittens. Instead of choosing finger mittens, opting for mittens is just right for beginners. If that worked out well and you want to knit yourself some fashionable mittens, there are of course plenty of knitting patterns for men's mittens for that too at Crazypatterns. However, a little practice is needed here, as the fingers of these gloves are very narrow and not so easy to make. But practice makes perfect.
Try a little to find the right yarn and finger length for your hand size. You can always try on the gloves while knitting to find out the exact size or measure your fingers before you start knitting. You can also find very detailed information in our knitting patterns for men's gloves, which include tips on the material you need (e.g. size of knitting needle, wool) as well as the correct number of stitches for mittens. Clear pictures complement the knitting patterns for men's gloves, so that you can work your way step by step to the finished gloves. As the level of difficulty increases, creative patterns and unusual knitting techniques are also possible.
Whether you are a beginner or a real knitting pro - Crazypatterns offers new and interesting patterns for knitting men's gloves for everyone. Take your time to browse through our patterns and choose the right knitting patterns for men's gloves for your knitting level, written by real professionals and explained clearly with expressive pictures. There is always something suitable for beginners and experts in knitting men's gloves.
You are still a real knitting beginner and still want to try your first gloves? The ideal gloves for beginners are mittens. Here, only the thumb is delimited, the rest of the fingers are then enclosed by the glove together. The knitting patterns for men's gloves are correspondingly simple. By the way, it's even easier to make gauntlets where you only have to knit a thumb hole. Here are a few tips for knitting the most common types of gloves.
Mittens work very simply, preferably in one colour and without complicated knitting patterns for beginners. It is important that the wrist is completely covered so that no cold penetrates from above and the mitten fits well under the jacket cuffs. Classic mittens are no problem for knitting beginners. If you are an expert knitter, you can add a nice pattern to the top of your mittens. For example, how about the popular Norwegian pattern - to match the Norwegian jumper.
Tip: If you want to knit a pair of mittens for your children or grandchildren, you can make them even more attractive with small appliqués (e.g. small pom-poms) or by choosing particularly bright colours. To make sure your child doesn't lose the mittens, it's a good idea to tie the pair together. This way, the mittens can be easily stowed in the jacket sleeves and are always ready to hand when out and about.
Finger gloves. You can start with the wrist or the fingertips, depending on what suits you best. It gets more complicated with the fingers, as they have to fit your hands as precisely as possible and every hand has very different measurements and finger lengths. If you're giving gloves as a gift, it's also a good idea to take your measurements beforehand. If it's a surprise, you can take the measurements inconspicuously on one of the recipient's old gloves. You can find out exactly how to knit gloves in the numerous patterns for knitting men's gloves from Crazypatterns.
Have you just fallen in love and want to tell your partner in a romantic way? Then why not knit yourself a pair of gloves for lovers that will fit you both and join your hands together very closely. Couple's gloves consist of two gloves knitted together, into each of which one of the couple's hands fits. Ideal for holding hands during a winter walk or as a fun gift idea for wedding couples, for Valentine's Day or for Christmas - perhaps with funny Christmas motifs such as reindeer.
The couples' gloves are also suitable in a small version for mother and child. For example, to walk hand in hand to nursery or school in the morning. These patterns for knitting men's gloves are suitable for you if you already have a basic knowledge of knitting, you don't have to be a professional.
Of course, gloves in classic black, grey or brown are perfectly adequate for business outfits. But you can get really creative with your men's gloves for leisure activities if you use different patterns. You'll find lots of inspiration in our knitting patterns, which are usually aimed at advanced users. With a little practice and the know-how of different knitting techniques, you can create gloves in a variety of designs.
You can choose a bead pattern, honeycomb pattern, cable pattern or even a wave pattern for your gloves. The bead pattern is ideal for beginners as it is the easiest to knit. The wave pattern is also not too difficult. Would you like to learn more about the challenging cable pattern or Norwegian pattern? Then we recommend you take a look at our community forum, where many enthusiastic users are always happy to help each other with new knitting ideas and knitting patterns for men's gloves. Alternatively, check out our YouTube channel for lots of interesting tutorials to help you knit more difficult techniques.
Tip: How about a two-colour honeycomb pattern that stands out from other glove designs?
Gloves that are given together with a matching scarf or hat are suitable as a gift. Practical knitwear always goes down well under the Christmas tree. Even birthday children born in winter are happy about warm gloves. Homemade gift ideas are also ideal for people who can afford all sorts of things or already have everything. Instead of vouchers, cash or electronic consumer goods, many parents and grandparents are happy about self-made items that come from the heart and even have a practical use in everyday life.
For your new men's gloves, you need thin or thick wool - depending on how much you want them to keep you warm. Gloves made of thin yarns are recommended as a fashion accessory, while thicker wool is better for extra cold winter days. You can keep your hands really warm with gloves made from alpaca or sheep's wool, for example. The versions with the finest merino wool or mohair are a little more elegant. Alternatively, there are less natural material mixes, for example made of polyacrylic and wool, but they are not as warm as gloves made of real virgin wool.
You'll need several balls of wool and a few knitting needles in different sizes to get started. Then find the right knitting patterns for men's gloves and you're ready to start your knitting project. By the way, loose yarn ends can be easily sewn up with a darning needle.
Tip: Order several knitting needles and wool in different thicknesses and colours as a set so that you remain flexible when knitting men's gloves. A good place to go for great yarns are fabric and needlework shops, where you can find all the accessories you need for knitting, crocheting or sewing.
