About the Author
Behind Lulu Compotine is Sandra Muller!
Sandra established Lulu Compotine in 2018 after initially learning to knit clothes for her children. She then stumbled upon the wonderful realm of amigurumi - vibrant, crocheted cuddly toys! Consequently, her first charming crochet Owl came to life.

Gradually, character dolls have taken precedence over animals, as she relishes the process of crafting garments and accessories, reminiscent of her childhood spent playing with dolls.

Sandra showcases her work on social media and provides patterns on Etsy, enabling enthusiasts to embark on their own journey of crocheting delightful cuddly toys and dolls.

Lulu's Crochet Doll Family follows hot on the heels of the popular Lulu's Crochet Dolls, which has sold over 21,000 copies since 2024.

Céline Bonnaud (@les_loulous_de_guibo) started showing an interest in drawing around 8 years old and was quickly enrolled me in art classes alongside my regular schooling. Institut Supérieur d'Art et Publicité, and then the École des Gobelins. 18 years ago, after the birth of her third child, she started drawing again, first portraits, then little children's characters that she began to develop into vignettes. Her illustrations have been deeply influenced by childhood reading. Through these and other books, she realized that certain illustrations resonated deeply with her. Today, her drawing style reflects all these influences and experiences. It is both nostalgic and contemporary, imbued with the innocence of childhood and a touch of humor.
