Sonja M. Otto


Sonja lives in rural Pennsylvania with her husband and three children. She has been crocheting for over 20 years, and can knit a bit as well. Her design path started about 7 years ago when her daughter asked her to make doll clothes for her new American Girl doll. Since that time, she has gone beyond from just designing doll clothes. She loves design that isn’t overly fussy, but still remains pretty and elegant at the same time. Her designs can be found on Etsy, Ravelry, and Craftsy.
