Hi all - I am so sorry not to have posted about this years Yarnstravaganza!

The last couple of weeks have been quite hard for my family with a couple of our dearest being hospitalised, stress full all round🙈😵‍💫. Hopefully things are starting to look better now.

More exciting news - We will be kicking off tomorrow at 9am and the event will run until next Saturday

From next week Bodkins will reopen every Tuesday. Our opening times will return to Tuesday - Saturday 9am - 5pm

We have some great goody bag give aways for purchases over
£50.00, £30.00 and a lucky dip box for over £10.00

Last year our goody bags went really quickly. They can only last until they are gone! Hurry hurry, 🏎️ 🏃‍♀️

Naturally, there are lots of discounted yarns on offer along side some lovely Autumn and winter lines.

Amanda and I can’t wait to get started 💪🧶.
Quick question, would you like us to throw in a surprise raffle £1.00 per ticket…. 🤔

Ok, I know really you want me to 🎶 sing🤪

Have a great Friday evening
Keep knitting and crocheting
Sandie and Amanda 💕
