Have you ever had trouble following a printed pattern? Keeping track of what row you're on? Look at this pattern row marker I made using only scrap yarn. You simply take a strand of yarn a little more than twice as wide as the page knot it so it slips snugly over the sheet. Then I added smaller pieces to keep count of repeating rows. It works great.
Pictures and a better description on my blog.
