📘 What is the Stitch Club members directory?

The Stitch Club members directory is a brilliant way to explore and build connections with other members from around the world.

You can use it to search for people by name, location, shared interests, or workshop participation.

Using the direct messaging feature, you can even start conversations and potentially arrange to meet up in person!

 

 

🔍 Where can I find and search the Stitch Club members directory?

To find the directory:

  • On a laptop or desktop, click ‘Members’ in the top bar.

  • On a phone or tablet, tap the hamburger menu icon (three lines at the top), then select ‘Members’.

Once inside the directory, use the buttons at the top of the screen to search:

  • Name – type in a member’s name to find someone specific.

  • Location – click ‘Location’, enter the area (e.g. ‘Manchester’) and click ‘Apply’ to view members nearby.

  • Bio – search for shared interests, techniques or materials mentioned in a member’s profile.

  • Spaces – search for members involved in a particular workshop or area of Stitch Club.
