Steering Wheel Cover

With summer comes warmer temperatures. And days when I go to touch my steering wheel only to burn my hands.

I figured I could knit a steering wheel cover. To protect my hands.

Okay, maybe just because I can.


I've had a couple days to drive around using it. I'm still trying to decide if I like it.


Not bad. But it's going to need a few design modifications.

    You just reminded me I need to put the screen in my window. When I do that, the steering wheel doesn't get hot. Plus it saves the dashboard.

    Used to be able to buy a stretchy rubber thing for steering wheels to help with the heat. Problem now is steering wheels are uniform is size or think like they used to be. The rubber was good because it didn't slid. I would be worried about slipping off I think something that didn't grip. Creative on your part, good luck.

      Yes, slipping is a problem. I'm going to have to fix that if this is going to work.

    Is it tied to prevent it from sliding? It looks like it is.

    You'll have to let us know what you decide. =)

    Ah - I just wished I lived in a place where hot steering wheels were EVER a problem....

    It's a good idea, plus it fancies up your wheel. Super chic :)

    How cute. I don't think I'd like driving with it, but it's adorable.

      Thanks. Yes, the driving is...interesting. But it'll be useful once the heat arrives.
