The OHCG Has Teachers Across Ontario

The O.H.C.G. has many talented teachers in its midst and we hope you will be able to take advantage of their skills and experience at some point in your hooking projects. Our teachers offer classes in their homes, in community centers around the province and many teach classes all over North America.

Our teachers offer courses in every method of hooking, from traditional and fine shading, to proddy and hooking with nylons. They are located throughout Ontario. The O.H.C.G. School is held annually in the fall. It offers a variety of classes in the relaxed setting of the Mount Mary Retreat in Ancaster, Ontario where you can join us for a weekend of learning, hooking and friendship.

In addition, the O.H.C.G. offers Teacher Training periodically. For more information on Teacher Training requirements and to fill out an application, see Becoming a Teacher to the left.

The following listings contain the names of OHCG Certified active teachers together with their contact information and areas of specialty. Some teachers will travel to put on workshops.
