Magpie & Hook is a modern craft shop and teaching studio on Mill Street Bideford. Providing haberdashery, and yarn and lots of sewing, knitting and crochet workshops
Offering a wide range of handmade items, using poker work, macramé and decoupage, as well as the more familiar sewing, knitting and crochet, The Crafty Old Lady has something for everyone.
We are a lived-experience led organisation. All our staff – and many of our Trustees – have experience of a significant bereavement, some from a very young age.
We have been trading in Bideford for more than 20 years and are now in the main hall of Bideford Pannier Market, having moved from the shop in Allhalland Street.
Best described as a cartoonist in wood, John Butler's surreal and gently humorous carvings make his gallery an essential destination for visitors and locals alike.
