Mei Li Lee is an amigurumi artist based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She is best known as the author of Hello Kitty Crochet, and a mom to twin boys, whom she enjoys telling far-fetched stories to. The former journalist is now often busy planning for playtime and thinking of ways on how best to occupy the kids. Thankfully, she still gets some time off to sit down and design cute crochet characters through hopeful rose-tinted glasses.
