Please do not purchase the wrong type of stitch markers. Knitting stitch markers cannot be used with crochet.
In crochet a stitch marker is a memory aid used to mark important locations on your work in progress. Crochet patterns have a mathmatical basis, so stitch markers serve as a visual reference that replaces the need to continually count stitces and reduces the error rate.
Stitch markers are used for noting the first stitch on a crochet round, marking increase or decrease points, or identifying key locations in a complex repetitive stitch pattern. They are very useful when crocheting socks too. New crocheters can also use stitch markers to identify a turning chain. Stitch markers can also mark attachment points for joining of a multi-part project, such as a sleeve, heel, etc.
