Crochet Bike Seat Cover

by 4 Comments

 

 

I love this seat cover!  I could have used it – urgently needed it – several years ago when I bought my son an almost perfect used bike.  The imperfection was a slash in the seat cover.  I tried a number of methods to cover the seat, but sonny ended up having to endure the imperfection.  Fortunately, he liked the bike enough anyway!

This bike cover has another plus.  It would add a nice extra layer of softness between the seat and my derriere.  That cannot be a bad thing!  I have an almost new bike hanging in my garage, awaiting the return of my biking enthusiasm.  That darn seat bruises me!  So, I’m going to pull it down, follow the instructions given here and create a more comfortable seat for myself.  The bike is hot orange.  Hmmmm.  What color(s) do I need for the seat?

  1. Hot Orange? How about Stark Rainbow Sherbet colors to blend! Love those colors, peach being my favorite in the “orange” category! Uhhh… I don’t know… I was going to suggest a double strand thickness or better yet some toy “stuffing”, (batting) cut to size for added thickness. Hugs Sheri *¿*

  2. I’m seeing 100% cotton dreamsicle colors of soft orange with white or cream! If you stuff it with a bag filled with sand, perhaps, or memory foam, might be a nice cushion!

  3. Can you leave a pattern on page i would love to Know how to make the bike seat cover.I need one badly. My bike seat is so HARD!
