Abbreviations
SC- single crochet
SC INC- single crochet increase (2 SC in each stitch)
INV DEC- Invisible decrease (put hook through the FRONT LOOP ONLY of two consecutive stitches [two loops on hook] Yarn over pull through both loops. [two loops on hook] Yarn over pull through two loops)
Magic Circle- Make a loop, leaving a long tail to work with. Insert hook in center of loop, yarn over and draw up a loop. Yarn over, pull through to make the first chain (this does not count as a stitch!). Continue to crochet over the loop and tail with the number of stitches called for. (If you need 6 SC, then crochet 6 SC inside the ring.) Pull the tail to close the circle.
DC- Double Crochet
TRC- Triple Crochet
Eye Piece
Chain 11. In the 4th chain from the hook TRC. TRC in the next. DC in the next 3 stitches. HDC in the next 2. SC in the remaining stitch. (8)
SC in each stitch around, with a SC in each of the 3 chain at the beginning of the eye piece.

Arms
Before you make the magic circle, pull out a long tail and keep it on the outside of the circle. This is what you will use to attach the leg to the body.
With gray:
Round 1: SC 7 in a magic circle.
Round 2: SC INC in each around (14)
Rounds 3-21: SC in each around. (14)
Change to ivory.
Round 22: SC in each around. (14)
Chain 7. *In the third chain from the hook, HDC. HDC in the remaining 4 chains for a total of 5 HDCs.* Flatten the arm and put your hook through the touching stitches and slip stitch. Slip stitch once more and then chain 7. Repeat * * two more times, for a total of 3 toes. Fasten off and weave in the ends.
Attach at the top of the body, just under the head with an angle slightly forward. The toes will curve in naturally, have that curve go in towards the body, like a sloth’s feet would.
Legs
Before you make the magic circle, pull out a long tail and keep it on the outside of the circle. This is what you will use to attach the leg to the body.
With gray:
Round 1: SC 7 in a magic circle.
Round 2: SC INC in each around (14)
Rounds 3-21: SC in each around. (14)
Change to ivory.
Round 22: SC in each around. (14)
Chain 7. *In the third chain from the hook, HDC. HDC in the remaining 4 chains for a total of 5 HDCs.* Flatten the arm and put your hook through the touching stitches and slip stitch. Slip stitch once more and then chain 7. Repeat * * two more times, for a total of 3 toes. Fasten off and weave in the ends.
With the sloth sitting, pin the legs so that they are the same on both sides of the body (about rows 7-9) and sitting flat. Like the arms, have the toes curl in.
