i have a sssnaking sssuspicion...

that you're gonna love this guy....  he's verry sssweet!

I got this fantasitc pattern from bee's knees knitting on ETSY.  I've found some awesome pattern-makers on ETSY and this is one of them.  Their animal scarves are soooo cute...I bought several patterns and this sssweet sssnake is the first one I've tried!  I LOVE it!!!!

I'm sure you won't mind at all if this sweet boy wraps himself around you... his face is so innocent... he just wants to keep you warm.  He won't squeeze, he promises!!!  :)



I love this snake so much that I'm working on some sssnake mittens... they are so fun!  :) 

The Sssnake Ssscarf is listed in my ETSY shop!  ....there are a couple color options... check out my ETSY shop @ www.etsy.com/shop/PaperRaisins

...back into the groove

It's been a while, a LOOOOOONG time, too long..... but I've got some great news!  I've re-opened Paper Raisins!!!  Some things have changed so please bear with me while I work out some of the kinks.  I'm directing sales through my ETSY site now, it's much more straightforward than sales through my website were in the past, so easier to use for you & streamlines some of the processes for me too so it's a win-win as far as I'm concerned! 

My website will still be around for viewing access for a limited time only (which sounds so infomertial).  So soak in the sights while you can!! 

I'm working in a bot of a limited capacity, many of my supplies are still in storage and can't some out just yet.  Remember that obscecely large stash of yarn I told you about...well, most of it is boxed up and inaccessablle along with my sewing machine, buttons, ribbons, fabric etc  ...but I've stashed some of my favorites on site & I'm posting new items to my ETSY shop every few days!!! 

I've got a couple great new scarves that I'm offering, they're super veratile!  ...and since there's been a bit of a chill in the air the timing is perfect - great as a gift for mom, wife, friend, sister, girlfriend....yourself....  there's some great colors in fantastic yarn, you'll have to check them out!   Oh, and I got new patterns for adorable animal scarves.... working on the Ssssnake right now, he's soooooo cute!  I'll post some pics as soon as I have them!

As always, if you don't see what you're looking for, would like a different color, size etc, let me know.  I try my best to accomodate special requests!  ...if you're ordering locally (Winnipeg, MB) please shoot me a message before making a purhcase through ETSY so I can set up a special listing for you in Canadian funds & with a reduced or eliminated shipping/delivery charge (free Winnipeg delivery for orders over $50).

It feels great to be back behind the hook/needles again!  ....hope you enjoy the ride with me!
