Materials:
You will need #4 worsted weight yarn in two different colors, 3.00
mm crochet hook, 2.00 mm crochet hook, poly-fill for stuffing,
stitch marker, tapestry needle, sewing/straight pins, and 20.00
mm safety eyes. Optionally you may need sequins and
embroidery floss.

Let’s talk yarn!

3

You will use #4 worsted weight yarn for this project. You will need 180
yards of yarn in main body color. You will need 50 yards in an accent
color. Optionally you may need 9 yards of embroidery floss to stitch on
freckles and belly button.

Gauge:
4 sts by 5 rows = 1 inch with a 3.00 mm crochet hook and worsted
weight yarn. Gauge is not extremely important for this pattern.
You just want to keep even tension and crochet tight enough
that stuffing does not poke through the holes.

Abbreviations:
Ch: chain
Sl st: slip stitch
Sc: single crochet
Blo: back loop only
Sc inc: single crochet increase
Sc dec: single crochet decrease

Notes:
This would be considered an intermediate pattern. Sewing skills
and patience are required! This pattern is written in US crochet
terminology. Most of this pattern is worked in continuous rounds so
you will need to use a stitch marker. This is a lengthy pattern so I will
be including a notes section before each new task. Yarn and hook
4

information will be included before each new task. Happy

hooking!

Other important Information!

When making amigurumi I suggest using the invisible decrease
method. There are a ton of YouTube tutorials on this but basically
you decrease as you normally would but in the front loops only.
This ensures that there won’t be any bumps or gaps in your finished
amigurumi project! Please note that the rest of your project will be
worked through both loops! You will only be working in the front
loops when you decrease!

Now on to the crochet pattern!

There will be a couple different ways to make your little devil. You
will have 2 options for horns. I have included instructions for a tail,
but you may want to make yours without a tail. I have also
included instructions on how to create wings. These are also
optional.

Different yarn color choices and embellishments can change how

your finished creature looks. I used embroidery floss to add
freckles/belly button to one and sewed sequins onto the other.

My tester turned her little devil into a Krampus by sewing the ears
higher on the head near the horns! She ditched the safety eyes
and felted on a face. She also added yarn fur above the eyes and
under the chin for a goatee. She also added yarn fur to the
stomach. If you wish to add fur to your devil. Just cut a bunch of 2-
inch-long strips of yarn. Attach them to your stuffie in the desired
5

places and then use a cat/wire brush to gently brush the yarn out
to give it that furry look!

I know devils aren’t everyone’s thing. You could definitely market

your finished stuffie as a monster or Halloween creature!

Watch for instructions before each new step for hook/yarn info!

Watch for instructions on horns as well as wings!

Take your time and have fun with it! There is no wrong combination
when it comes to your imagination!

Break yarn with a long tail for sewing. Your wing is finished See
image below!
17

Now it is time to sew the wing onto the arm. I find it helpful to use
sewing pins and maybe even a safety pin to hold the wing in
place while you sew. See image below on how to pin the wing to
the arm!
18

You want to take your time while sewing so that your finished wing
comes out as desired. When you have completed sewing the wing
onto the arm DO NOT break yarn. You will want to use that tail to
sew the wing onto the body later during the assemble portion of
the tutorial! See image below!

Add more poly-fill if needed! Use a running stitch to close the remaining hole.
Break yarn and weave in your ends. See images below!
21

The base of your head is now complete! Set aside!

Now it’s time to assemble your little devil!

First, we will attach the head to the body! Take your time! Make
sure the head is centered on the body. Use sewing pins to hold the
head in place! See image below!

Sew it securely into place. Break yarn and weave in your ends.
Next we will sew the ears onto the head! Take your time! Place the
22

ears 7 sts away from the eyes. See images below on where to pin
the ears!

Sew them securely into place. Break yarn and weave in your ends.
Now we will sew the horns onto the head. The placement is up to
you. See images below on where I placed my horns!

Sew them securely into place. Break yarn and weave in your ends.
Next, we will sew the legs and tail onto the body. Use sewing pins
23

to help hold things in place as you sew. Break yarn and weave in
your ends! This is what your project should like so far! See images
below!

If you chose not to add wings to your little devil. Pins your arms into
place. See image below!
24

Sew them securely into place. Your little devil is now complete! If
you did choose to add wings to your body, follow the steps below
to finish your little devil.

You will pin the arms in place first. At this point you will notice that
your wings are longer than your body. You will need to pin your
wings onto the body in a curved C shape so that they will fit
properly onto the body! See images below on how to pin the
wings!
25

This is probably the most frustrating and time-consuming part of the

tutorial. You will feel the urge to speed through it now that your
project is almost complete! Don’t rush. Take your time! Sewing is as
equally important as crochet when it comes to stuffies!

Use the yarn tail from the arm to sew the arm into place. (The yarn
tail that is in the main body color!) Break yarn and weave in your
ends. Use the yarn tail from the wing to sew the wing securely into
place. (The yarn tail that is in the accent color.) Break yarn and
weave in your final ends!

Make sure all the sewing pins have been removed from your
project. Your little devil is now complete!

Important tips!
Always exercise adult supervision when using safety eyes on a
project. You can use felt or embroidered eyes! Because of the
delicate wings and safety eyes I suggest spot cleaning your
finished devil!

Feel free to sell your finished stuffies!
