Watch out for the new arrivals of this red Devil cat in a sexy costume, and she is going to take the Halloween festival by storm! Our famous Amigurumi cat made a brief appearance when her black cat husband modeled for the Witch costume photoshoot, but now it’s time for her to shine! For this years’ costume party, Hello Kitty wanted an outfit that was scary yet sexy. That’s when we came up with the design for this Demon Halloween costume! It allows Hello Kitty to unleash her inner Devil while looking gorgeous 😈

How is the Devil connected to Halloween? The Irish folktale claims that it was because of a man named Stingy Jack. Jack made a deal with the Devil but ended up fooling him. After Jack died, Heaven shut its doors behind him, and the Devil kept his promise not to collect his soul. In the end, he was left with a lump of burning coal to light his way as he roamed around the earth.

This Devil costume includes several components to crochet and assembles, rest assured, it’s a pretty straightforward project. If you’re a beginner or wish to DIY Halloween costumes for your loved ones, this is the perfect crochet pattern for you to make.

Red Devil Dress

This backless sexy red halter dress has a low-cut V neckline and an A-line skirt. It is about 5″ long from shoulder to the “hem” of the dress. With a button fastener at the back, it is easy to wear for most stuffed toys or dolls; including most of the animals & wildlife collections in the Craft Passion’s Free Amigurumi Pattern.

The dress is crochet from red acrylic light worsted yarn with a 2.5mm crochet hook. You’ll first crochet the top part of the crochet Devil costume, which is designed to resemble a bikini top. Next, continue to crochet the skirt part to make up the dress. 

Devil Cape

The process of creating this Devil cape is the same as the Witch cape that we have shared the free crochet pattern previously. The only difference here is the color! We chose a black cape for the red Devil cat to bring out the vibrant color of her red dress and accessories.

With light worsted acrylic yarn, crochet the collar, drape, and tie separately, then assemble them by lacing the tie through the holes and tying a small ribbon.

Devil Horn Headband

The most significant component for a Devil Halloween costume is its Devil horns, tail, and Devil trident. The Devil horn headband that, Hello Kitty, the amigurumi cat is wearing has a circumference of 11″; however, it is easy to modify the crochet pattern to make it bigger or smaller simply by adding or reducing the stitch of the headband.

Crochet 2 pointy horns and stuff them with polyester fiberfill. Finish off by crocheting the headband according to your doll’s head size and attaching the horns on the band. 

Devil Tail

The Devil tail consists of two components; the arrow tip and the tail. Start by making the tip and leaving a long tail for sewing. Then, crochet the tail until you reach 30 rounds or 6″ long before inserting a pipe cleaner to hold it in place. Lastly, connect the two parts by sewing the tip to the round one area of the Devil tail.

Devil Trident

The construction method of the Devil Trident is similar to making an amigurumi; however, instead of stuffing it with polyester fiber, we stuffed it with a disposable chopstick and a pipe cleaner. Then we finish off it by sewing the prong tips to the handle, and you’re all done! 

You may probably find a toy devil trident in the store to substitute it, which will make your Demon Halloween costume project easier.
