Good Morning Tracy, that is what I do.

So, do you use what I think are called locking stitch markers?  The kind
that open and close?

When you come to one, do you open it up, move it up a row, and close it up
again?

Or is there some other way?

Crochet types like stitch markers also.

 

Warm smile.

I can count some in crochet, but how do you count a lot?  Like, if I have a
knitting row of 100 stitches, I put a marker every 20 stitches, so I never
have to count more than 20.  But I don't think I can do that in crochet.
So, if I have 100 stitches, how do I make sure I'm not getting off track,
without doing a whole lot of counting?
