Vibrant crochet car seat covers
This pattern is composed of a set of very detailed instructions followed by a few pages of graphic illustrations and photos which are referred to in the text. I suggest you print out the pages so you can follow along with both at the same time. I feel like I have written a short book here! whew
Level: Intermediate
There are detailed instructions for the front seats.
And brief instruction on the back seats (because their design doesn’t accommodate all vehicles)
Car seat REQUIREMENTS:
Front seats: Head rest must be able to be removed on front seats.
Back seat covers: the back seat covers fit well onto SUVs, Saburus, Volvos and jeep-style cars which have an open back space connecting to the trunk. These types of seats allow the covers to slip over them. They do not work with sedans as there is no way to fasten the covers onto the seats.
Measurements:
Bottom seat cover: 20x19 in.
Back seat cover: 23x20 in.
Head seat: 8x8in.
Instructions for how to make larger or longer to accommodate your vehicle are included.
Materials needed:
14 skeins of yarn total
3.25 mm needle
Scissors
Stitch marker (you may use a safety pin)
Measuring tape to measure seat size
Mercerized acrylic yarn

• You may swap colors and use whatever colors of your liking, keeping the amount of colors the same or adding more rows of one color as you go along.
• Do not use regular acrylic because it’s itchy.
• You may also use cotton but acrylic is stronger and more durable.
