Mitten Cross Stitch Patterns

December 21, 2023 by Sarah White

It’s probably the knitter in me, but I’m drawn to holiday projects that use winter wardrobe staples as motifs. Bring me all the tiny Christmas sweater ornaments, hats on snowmen, and, yes, mitten cross stitch patterns.

I’m clearly not alone because there are a lot of them out there. Let’s dive in to the fun little world of cross stitch mitten patterns.

Speaking of mittens and other winter things as decor, here’s a set that includes mittens, a hat, sweater and a stocking, from Cross with Me on Etsy. I love the red and white look on these but you could use any holiday colors you like.

Red and white is a popular choice when it comes to mitten cross stitch patterns, because here are some more from Easy Patterns Only. I love the Nordic stars and knitting-inspired patterns on these, the full set of which measures 42 by 45 stitches. These would be super cute as a holiday card or as a border on another project, too.

Another Nordic style mitten pattern can be found in this blue and white design from Hapinesst. This one is 74 by 52 stitches and fits in a 7 inch hoop as a frame. It uses four colors.

A cool spin on the mitten cross stitch pattern is these from Tapestry Barn on Etsy. These patterns are mitten shaped, use cross stitch, long stitch and French knots, and are meant to be cut out and used as mitten-shaped ornaments. They feature reindeer, hearts, Scandi patterns and more, and they also have a source for wooden mitten blanks that you can stitch right onto instead of using fabric if you want.

If you’re looking for a pattern that’s a little more than just a mitten, check out the Left Gingerbread Mitten from Shannon Christine. This 40 by 54 design features a gingerbread person and a candy cane peeking out of a mitten being used as a stocking. (And yes there’s a right mitten version as well.)

Or try this mitten in an ornament pattern from 1000s Patterns on Etsy. This one is so pretty on dark fabric, but you could also cut it out and mount it to use as an ornament if you want. It is 39 by 48 stitches and uses 16 colors.

Bookmark Cross Stitch Patterns

It seems like there’s no end to the available options when it comes to cross stitch bookmarks, which is a good thing because they’re perennially popular to stitch as well. This time I thought I’d share some colorful cross stitch bookmarks to get you ready for the new school year or to make meeting your reading goals a little more fun. 

I love these retro floral designs from The Stitch Patterns. This set of four patterns is rated as very easy, and each bookmark measures 2.5 by 6 inches (or 6.35 by 15.25 cm) on 14 count fabric. 

These cute ones that look like mosaic tile would also be fun to stitch. This set includes five designs from EmbroSTyle Designs, and they call them folk art but they mostly look like old mosaics to me. Either way, the bookmarks are 25 by 101 stitches, and to stitch the full set uses 12 colors. 

If you’re looking for more of a challenge, you can stitch up a work of art with this set of 16 bookmarks designed to look like famous paintings. Stitch some sunflowers or a great wave or a starry night. Most of these are between 14 and 20 colors (the great wave is only 8) and the bookmarks are totally covered with stitching at a count of 35 by 100 stitches. Grab this set from Sunset and Sea Design.

Or how about some bookmarks inspired by books (or by movies inspired by books)? This set of Lord of the Rings bookmarks includes four landmarks from the books/movies. Each one is 35 by 115 stitches and uses between 8 and 17 colors. You can find them at byCountryMagicStitch.

These don’t quite all fit the description of being colorful bookmarks to cross stitch, but a few of them do, and speaking of book-themed bookmarks I had to share this set from Mama Geek inspired by Heartstopper. There are seven designs in all that should be quite familiar to readers (or viewers of the series).
