Hi Ari.
I do have different stitch markers to denote different things.  As you surmise, it does work well.
However, I'm not sure it would work for colorwork where I'm changing color every couple stitches.  I use braille labels stuck in the center of my yarn balls to keep my colors straight, and stitch markers every few repeats so I see pretty quickly if I'm going wrong.
But you're already thinking along good lines, and you're just getting started with knitting!
Tracy

Just yesterday, I heard of stitch markers with little beads and other decorations on them. Could using these, one type for certain color changes and one type for another color change help with complicated color changes in knitting? Just a thought. I have no idea if something like this would work well at all.


Thanks,
Ari
