About Oddkin & Co

Hi, I’m Ren! The human behind Ren’s Craft Den, and most importantly, the creator of Oddkin: the friend-shaped yarn icon who is loved by people of all ages.

With a family full of knitters and crocheters, as well as having done both for over 10 years, I love all things yarn and get super excited when I see all the fabulous things people make with it.

Based in Holbeach, Lincolnshire, Oddkin & Co opened its door in November 2024 with the goal to make yarn crafts accessible.

This special little bricks and mortar yarn shop is just the beginning of this adventure…
