Now between stitching up her favorite characters and new additions to her wardrobe, Lee makes crochet content for her 111K Instagram followers and guest hosts on the popular PBS Show Knit and Crochet Now. As the author of four crochet books, Lee enjoys sharing her love for turning a few skeins of yarn into a work of art that can be cherished for generations to come. .
  • After becoming a trusted voice in the crochet community, Lee is looking forward to sharing everything she has learned about amigurumi along the way. As one of Lee’s favorite crochet mediums, amigurumi can help any intermediate crocheter create a cuddly stuffed animal all while learning techniques like the magic loop method, the popcorn stitch, and invisible stitch decreases.  .
