This sweet little Sloth would look so cozy in a nursery, or kids room. It would also be a cute wall hanging, or photo prop for baby’s first pictures.

It’s worked with 2 strands of worsted weight yarn held together. If you prefer a bulkier rug, you can change the size by holding 3 or 4 strands of worsted weight yarn together instead of 2. If you use more than 2 strands, I recommend using a 12 mm hook to work the rug. The instructions would remain the same, the gauge and finished diameter would differ.

Beginner friendly pattern, must have knowledge of basic stitches, including chaining, sc, hdc and dc. Eyes, nose and mouth are sewn on after the rug is completed.
