Meet our adorable Hanging Sloth knitting pattern! This charming sloth is cute, cuddly, and loves to just hang around. Perfect for a cozy gift or a delightful addition to your home decor, this pattern will quickly become a favorite project.

While our Hanging Sloth is rated as an intermediate knitting pattern, it's truly accessible for an advanced beginner looking to take on a rewarding challenge. There are a couple of instances of short rows in this project, so we recommend brushing up on your short row techniques before you dive in. Take your time, be patient, and most importantly, remember to enjoy the process! :)

To get started, you will need approximately 84 meters of medium weight brown yarn, 3 meters of medium weight light brown yarn, and 12 meters of medium weight cream yarn. For this project, it's best to use 4 mm (US size 6) knitting needles. Additionally, you'll need a small amount of black yarn for the cute eyes, nose, and smile, stuffing (we suggest eco-friendly ecofil or soft wool), and a tapestry needle to assemble your Hanging Sloth.

You can use the suggested yarn or experiment with any yarn you love. This pattern is designed to be adaptable, so you can easily scale it up or down based on the thickness of the yarn you choose. Embrace your creativity and let your sloth reflect your personal style! With its endearing features and cuddly design, this Hanging Sloth will not only challenge your knitting skills but also bring joy to anyone who sees it.
