🏍 Amigurumi Harley-Style Crochet Motorcycle Pattern
This handcrafted crochet motorcycle is designed to replicate the low, muscular cruiser silhouette seen in the photo — wide tires, compact frame, chunky V-twin engine, stacked exhaust pipes, and a bold orange tank with black detailing. Every section is built for realism and stability, resulting in a display-grade piece that sits naturally on its kickstand atop a matching road mat.
This is not a toy-scale amigurumi — it’s a fiber sculpture made for serious crochet enthusiasts who enjoy engineering with yarn.
