Handcrafted leather steering wheel cover - The Sho Room

Time Required: approximately 2 hours

Things Required:

  • Needles and thread (Included in your purchase) 
  • lighter
  • Wheel cover

                          

Positioning

Position your cover. 

Peel the double sided tape attached to the wheel cover and stick to the wheel. 

 

Wrapping your steering wheel with leather wheel cover

Tie temporary locking knots. (optional)

Although this is not a necessary step, it will help you further reduce the creases.

 

See this photo for guide.

 

 

For the best result, it is recommended to thread the cover in 2 stages.

 

Threading the 1st round

To make it easier, you can cut the thread shorter so stitching process is a lot easier. 

Think about it as threading your shoe laces.

This is the same technique most people use to put shoelaces through.

You will have to skip every second holes when you thread along

(The skipped holes re for threading the 2nd round).

 

1. Beginning - Thread the cord as show in the below photo

 

 

2. Thread along like shoelaces. You will always be ENTERING in the holes from OUTSIDE.

 

Pull LIGHTLY to bring the cover together. 

DO NOT pull hard and try to close the gap all the way at this point. 
There will be some gap left after threading the 1st round, but this will close up when you finish the 2nd round.
 
Use one hands to gather the edges of the wheel cover together while you pull the thread lightly with the other hand.
Pull the thread so the thread has some tension but not too hard. Otherwise the cover will rip.

 

3.When you get to a spoke, EXIT out of the hole. (see the photo)

 

4.Stitch along the spoke. This is a simple in-and-out stitch not crossing to the other side.

 

5. Restart shoe lacing method when you get to the end of the spoke.

 

6. Repeat until you reach to the starting point. Taking care frequently checking to  make sure there is minimal wrinkles.

 

When you complete the round, cut the thread end and melt with light so it melts and locks in the place.

  

Your wheel should look like this at this point. 

 

 

 

Threading the 2nd round

You will be repeating the same process in the 1st round but this time you will work the opposite direction to create X pattern. 

 

If you have worked the clock wise in the 1st round, you will need to work in the anti-clock wise for the 2nd round. (vice-versa)

 

 

Start the same way you've started in the first round, but using the skipped hole this time.

 

You will be working with the holes you skipped in the 1st round (indicated by the blue dots)

 

 

When you are working on the spoke, the same technique applies just with the holes you skipped.

NOTE: Rear side of the spoke is harder to manipulate the needle. 

 

 

 

Stitch along all the way remembering to close the gap as you work along.

Once you complete whole way around, it should look like this.
