Black Cat Cross Stitch Patterns for Halloween

September 4, 2023 by Sarah White

Black cats are a well-known symbol of spooky season, but they’re also great companions throughout the year. (Written as a person who has a black cat and a tuxedo cat!)

Whether you’re looking for black cat cross stitch patterns to add to your Halloween decor just because they’re spooky, or because you own a black cat, this collection should provide some fun options.

The design that made me want to write a post about black cat cross stitch patterns was this one, the Autumn Cat 3D design from Cotton Pixels on Etsy. I am probably going to have to make this one because it is just so cute and I think it would be great to display on a shelf throughout the year or with my collection of knit and crocheted pumpkins in the fall.

Speaking of Halloween-themed black cat cross stitch patterns, The Starlight Stitchery has a lot of them on offer, but a couple that jumped out to me were the Boo Whoo pattern from Luminous Fiber Arts and Broom Black Cat from Stitch-N-Needs. (The first is a printed pattern and I think the second is a PDF but I’m not sure.)

This gorgeous stained glass black cat design from Luthien ART Shop on Etsy definitely has a Halloween vibe but to be honest I think I’d display it all year. It uses 36 colors and is based on a 200 by 200 stitch grid, which comes out to 14.3 inches square on 14 count fabric. This might be one you can start now and have finished in time for next Halloween!

DMC has a fun free occult black cat cross stitch pattern, where the cat is decorated with creepy images like a spider and web, ghost, bat and more. It uses 10 colors and you can download the pattern for free with login.

And while this one isn’t strictly Halloween, the cat in the bottle makes me think it’s been cursed by a witch (but being in a bottle full of books doesn’t sound too bad! You can get this one from Etsy seller Catstitch21.

D&D Cross Stitch Patterns

My husband is a D&D player from way back and still does role playing with his friends most weekends. There are lots of great D&D cross stitch patterns, but somehow the ones that caught my eye this time have a theme of being about the D&D classes or involving dice (or both). 

I love this collection of the D&D classes done as tarot cards. These would be so fun to stitch up for all the people in your party, or make the full set as one big wall hanging for the game room. There are 16 patterns total (just a few are shown here) and each one just uses three colors. The designs are from GlitchStitchAU.

This set kind of reminds me of astrological signs, though I can’t really say why. This set of 16 designs from White Raven Patterns is color coordinated so it sort of makes a rainbow if you stitch all of them. The dungeon master one is more colorful. Each one uses five or six colors and fits in a 10-inch hoop. 

Combining character classes and dice we get this set of 14 designs from Stitch it Picasso. Each one includes the class name and a die with a number on it, as well as some images that make sense for that class (the bard has a lute and music notes, for example). Each design is around 90 by 90 stitches and they use 13 to 19 colors each, depending on the design. 

Or you can make patches that look like dice with this D20 dice bundle from Non Player Creation. The patches are inspired by the four seasons, but you could change up the colors to suit your campaign setting if you like. They are 31 by 35 stitches and use between nine and 12 colors depending on the season. 

And speaking of D20s, this little dragon might be protecting your dice or cursing them, it’s hard to tell. It’s kind of cute, though! The design is from Cross Stitch Wow and measures 80 by 95 stitches. It fits in an 8-inch hoop and uses 16 colors.
