I use a post it note, I place it under the line I'm working on, with an arrow pointed to which square.If there is anything else I want to remember I write it on there as well.I used to have a magnetic board with a magnetic ruler to hold the pattern on....where the heck did I put that?

I love all these suggestions. I'm working on a big chart right now and I'm going to try and use a color pencil to cross off my stitches.

This is the biggest design I've done and I'm a bit scared I'm going to have to undo quite a big section.

I find it too much trouble to keep picking up the pen and putting down my needle!

I also use marker to highlight my project to know where I am, and use a sticky note the know the recent area, as I sometime leave my projects for quite long hi hi, and also forgetful, but of course after make copy of the original pattern :)
