Use the tail ends of the black yarn and a tapestry needle to sew side B to side A. Rnd b5: In black, *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in each of the next 3 sts* – repeat around. Rnd b4: *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts* – repeat around. Rnd b3: *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in next st* – repeat around. You will now work the other white side of the tire/wheel. Join and fasten off, leaving a long tail. Rnd a5: In black, *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in each of the next 3 sts* – repeat around. Rnd a4: *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in each of the next 2 sts* – repeat around. Rnd a3: *2 sc in first st, 1 sc in next st* – repeat around. I found this helped make the spacing when you’re working the second half of the wheel more even and made it easy to stuff the wheel.

*Note: The wheels are worked starting in the white center of one side (side A), up to the black of tire, and then the other white side (side B) is worked separately and sewn on.

*Note: I don’t know the names of these motorcycle parts, so I’ve numbered them in the picture below. Summer is the time for sunshine, blue skies and road trips! And if you or someone you know is a motorcycle lover, then this is the pattern for you!
