Two-Toed Sloth is an original EXPANSION PACK for the Sloth (three-toed) crochet pattern by June Gilbank. This is a pattern add-on, not a complete pattern.
What is an Expansion Pack?
- An Expansion Pack is an add-on to an existing PlanetJune pattern.
- It lets you modify or add to the original pattern to create something else.
- You cannot use an Expansion Pack alone - you must also purchase the original pattern to make the pictured items.

This Expansion Pack includes all the modifications required to crochet a Two-Toed Sloth. You will also need the Sloth pattern.
Size: approx 8" (20cm) tall (excluding limbs)
Yarn: worsted weight yarn: less than one skein of tan/light brown (approx 120m), and small amounts of cream/beige and medium/dark brown.
Hook: E US/3.5mm crochet hook
Additional info:
- My two-toed sloth has a pale head with a darker face and nostrils crocheted into the muzzle.
And, as with the original Sloth:
- His long legs have crocheted-in knee shaping so they don't just look like tubes.
- His shoulders and hips are jointed (I've also provided instructions for a non-jointed version) and he can hang around like a real sloth thanks to almost invisible hook-and-eye fasteners on his feet (optional, and I've also suggested alternative fasteners).
- Note: You could brush your sloth to give him a shaggier look that would be even more realistic, but I opted to leave mine with clean lines so you can see him more clearly.
Tip: Don't have the Three-Toed Sloth pattern yet? Take advantage of the savings when you buy the Two- and Three-Toed Sloth multipack!
