The staff are super friendly and helpful and were very keen to give me the low down on where to check out in Bendigo (seeing I'm not a local). Excellent service and as a Melbournite, I was very tempted by their great range of lamps and tables... if only I had a bigger car! A must to check out if you're in the area.

The Book Grocer has an awesome selection of books that's always evolving. However, you won't find…read morethe current bestsellers here, most of the stock is from the recent years, but the pricing is killer. Books in their display windows are usually a tenner, and last weekend, every single book was 5$! How good is that?! They needed to make room for more stock that's coming. So, I managed to grab some real bargains such as John Torode's 'Beef' cookbook (hardback), Bruce Parry's Amazon, a brick sized Collins Spanish-English-Spanish dictionary among several paperback fiction and some childrens books. All for five bucks each, seriously in this age when a new paperback costs almost thirty. I guess that gives you an idea of their range, and they also have selections of religion, politics, history, art, business, culture and sciences as well. In the past I've picked up a few design books as well. Even though many have embraced e-books, I personally still like to have a real book in my hand. The BG is great to have a browse everyweek as I bet you'll discover something you'd like to read especially as it's still curl-up-on-your-couch season.

I have been buying yarn from Bendigo Woollen Mills for years - it is fantastic quality, and excellent value. And I'm not exaggerating - check their website - you get a 200g cone (or ball) of high quality wool for only $12-$13! Postage is ridiculously cheap, and products are shipped promptly. With a huge colour selection, I don't know why more people don't shop here - it's perfect for anyone who works with wool. I've been buying it for my handweaving and woven tapestry, and it works out a lot cheaper than the local craft shop (plus the quality is ten times better!). It's lovely to knit with, and wears well without bobbling like the more commercial yarns do. I highly recommend anyone interested in crafting to support an Australian wool mill (one of the only mills left in Australia!) - knitting and crocheting are becoming trendier these days, so why not save yourself some money and buy wool in bulk?

A bit tricky to get to if you've never been there before, if you're a knitter, weaver or crocheter,…read moreyou'll want to check this place out. This is the kind of place that you should go to source wool and know what project you're buying for. You can check their prices and purchase online, but seeing it in person at least once is recommended. Even though they're a bit analog still, they DO do online shopping, phone and mail orders and send out current colour cards to their regular customers. You can also request them to send you their colour cards online or by phone so you can look at their swatches in person. They also sell patterns and fully knitted garments. If you run out of wool or underestimated how many skeins you needed for a particular project, you can call or email them about a colourway and dyelot and they will do their best to help you out. But they do sell out of popular colours quickly and you might need to purchase the latest dyelot, so plan ahead! Tip: Check out the back room for sales, goodies and treasures. Pro tip: The back room will be picked over and gutted by knitting harpies if you go during the Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show weekend! Overall: Good quality and economical choice for large projects that would otherwise be pricier with more boutique wools.

A part of me was somewhat surprised that I couldn't find a second hand bookshop in Bendigo, but…read morethat was before I found this place. It's located in a old building, and it certainly does have a pretty decent range. In fact the interior of the place is absolutely gorgeous, especially if you happen to be one of those people, like me, who likes to wander around such places, and explore what books that lie here, forgotten. Yeah, this place certainly did have quite a lot of charm, and is one that I'd have no problems returning to in a hurry.

Downstairs there are cabinets with special interest books at the front (first editions, unusual, signed) and a decent selection of art books. Further in is a large amount of literature and fiction and nice hardback editions. Upstairs is a large range of different categories of books including poetry and non-fiction. Prices are reasonable. (Sadly, we learnt this time that the owner is in ill health and the building has been sold. There are discounts now being applied to encourage you to buy up big as they are selling their entire stock.)
