Description Ok, so this is my first ever Sloth prototype, Poke, who's still with me now and provides inspiration for all my subsequent creations. He was made over August 2007 from Mohair, needlefelting, glass eyes... all your usual bear components. He's also probably the biggest size I'll be making them: the next size down, Pint sized, is easily manageable, but the Pocket sized sloth was nigh on impossible to finish properly- a bit of a shame!

Poke wen to London with my to my first ever Hugglets fair, and met loads o the people whose work I deeply admire, so he's seen a little of the outside world too!
