Tips for the Hanging Pose
A sloth keychain should hang like a real sloth: work the arms extra long so they can wrap around a small branch or the keychain ring itself. The face mask markings are cream appliques with dark eye patches embroidered on. Stuff the body softly so the sloth drapes naturally in that famously relaxed pose.

This sloth keychain is a gentle gift for anyone who needs to slow down, relax and take life easy. Sloths are the unofficial mascot of self-care, and this little one brings that energy to keys and bags. Sloth crochet is a beloved Pinterest niche that performs all year round.
