Leseprobe:

Pokémon has been a huge part of my life since I was in grade school. My best friend and I would run home after the bell and catch the Pokémon cartoon on TV every day. Now that I have kids, they too have become mega Pokémon fans, and the tradition of watching the shows and playing the Pokémon games continues for us. My name is Lee Sartori and throughout my life I have loved different art forms. After attending university in Canada studying visual arts, I discovered crochet. Creating with varying colors, yarns, and textures brought me so much joy! My journey with crochet led me to design my own patterns, work as a designer, and then assistant editor for a crochet magazine, host a PBS and CreateTV television show called Knit and Crochet Now! for several years, and publish several crochet books. It has been such an incredible journey so far, and my work under the "CoCo Crochet Lee" name continues to bring me so much fulfillment and happiness. It was such an honor to be asked to write Pokémon Crochet 2. I am so proud of the work we put into this book, and I hope you enjoy stitching up this new batch of crocheted Pokémon.
