Hi All, I, too use a plastic pocket for the working diagram copied from the book. At present I am working an edging from one of Elwyn Kenn's books. It sometimes helps to have a piece of cardboard in the pocket too.
Although it does not apply so much to lace patterns, I use a highlighter pen when working filet crochet, marking each row as I have worked it - then can see where I have been and where I am going. If I am working a repeat pattern, eg, on an altar cloth edge, I sometimes use a metal plate and magnets (specially made for the purpose) to keep track of where I am up to.
