Very few two day passes are available cutting across networks.
You best bet might be to get day passes for the two Tariff areas – Zurich (ZVV) and Ostwind (Schaffhausen and St Gallen areas).
SBB calls them ‘fare networks’ in English:

Hi Mavy,
I agree with 1960man. For short trips less than 3 days, your best options may be network-specific day pass or route specific return tickets. Based on your plans:
Zurich – St Gallen: A regular return ticket is CHF31 (Valid until 5am the next day)
Zurich – Schaffhausen – Stein am Rhein: a day pass covering Zurich and East Switzerland CHF55.60 (valid until 5am the day)
