Crochet Seat Belt Cozy


Seat Belt Cozy
I wanted to make a soft cover for my seat belt because I am a great lover of tank tops and well lets face it while driving or riding while wearing a stylish tank and your seat belt (safety first or as they say now click it or ticket lol) its not always friendly to your shoulder, and they tend to rub you the wrong way. So I wanted something soft but thick enuf it would be cozy and wouldn’t let the ends/sides of the seat belt rub you anyway, and caron simpy soft yarn and my layered spk st square pattern was just the right combo, so I altered it for what I wanted so here it is hope you all like it!
