Mostly natural items, like if I’m crocheting outside and forget a stitch marker I use grass, dead leaves, sticks, chicken feathers, cowfence wire, and chicken wire. XD

Ironically I think I never used anything other than a regular stitch marker. Probably, if anything, I used before I owned them was little scraps of yarn.

Loom band? I’ve also used yarn scaps and a safety pin (bc the stitches were too small for a regular stitch marker) but that’s not too crazy
