So, I did a little research and this is what I came up with.

It's Great Things Monday and we are very excited to tell you about RAKJ Crochet Patterns! Kristi has an amazing store filled with adorable crochet patterns. Here are a few favorites:
If you want to learn to crochet, head to her shop right now! Kristi created a video to teach you all the basics of crocheting. A book is great, but pictures and video are even better! Plus, it is $5.49!
Kristi is awesome about helping you with her patterns as well. Jill is in the middle of making her Triple Stitch blanket for a friend having a baby. She wasn't able to find the exact hook or yarn and Kristi quickly responded with some other options. That is an amazing plus to great pattern writing!
