Lisa's voice is equal parts hilarious and empowering, inviting you to be unapologetically yourself and have fun with your yarn. Perfect for Gen Z crafters, punk-hearted fiber artists, and anyone who's tired of pastel bunnies and cozy clichés, Snarky Crochet is a celebration of humor, honesty, and handmade rebellion. Use it to start conversations, get a laugh, or just vent in the most productive (and passive-aggressive) way possible. Because sometimes the best way to heal--or roast someone--is one stitch at a time.
Author Biography
Like parents who hide puréed cauliflower in mac and cheese to get their kids to eat vegetables, Lisa Ha uses comedy as the secret ingredient to get more people interested in crochet. A crochentertainer (crochet + entertainer) known as Get to Hooking Crochet on social media, her irreverent tongue-in-cheek humor is broadly enjoyed by audiences across the globe, whether they crochet (yet) or not. Born in the US into a large, boisterous family of Vietnam War refugees, Lisa was taught to crochet at age eight by one of her many aunts and never stopped. Her dry humor and approachable teaching style help make the ancient art of "hooking" accessible to total beginners while keeping things interesting for seasoned pros. At her home in Virginia, Lisa treasures her yarn stash, her collection of nerdy amigurumi, her husband, and her favorite handmade creations: her children--all in reverse order.
