San Diego North Coast Knitters Guild

MTM Workshops

Note: MTM is currently on hiatus as we do not have a coordinator. If you’re interested in volunteering to coordinate, please contact Tania Marshall.

 

In the meantime, Tania and other members host a knitting clinic before most in-person meetings. Learn more here.

Guild Members Teaching Members (MTM) Workshops

Guild members generously share their skills and knowledge in small, hands-on workshops. Passionate instructors introduce you to new techniques, creative projects, and valuable knitting insights.

 

MTM workshops are open to all members — whether you’d like to teach, host, or participate. Workshop fees (non-refundable) are paid directly to the instructor. Each instructor sets their own schedule, location, and class length.

Workshops are typically held in members’ homes throughout San Diego County — not always the instructor’s home. Hosts participate for free! Interested in teaching or hosting? It’s a great way to deepen your involvement in the Guild and connect with others.

Interested in Teaching a Workshop?

We’re currently looking for an MTM coordinator! If you’re interested in helping organize these workshops, please contact Tania Marshall.

If you’d like to teach a class, fill out the MTM Teacher Form.

Once you’ve submitted the form and it’s approved, you’re ready to go!

Host a Workshop!

Volunteer your home as a MTM workshop classroom. You only need a table and chairs to get started. The teacher can focus on students and class materials. Hosts get to take the MTM workshop free of charge.  We are searching for more host homes in various parts of the county.
