How to Use Row counters?

Row counters are the general name for a variety of devices that are used to help keep track of the row you are on in a knitting pattern. Counters are a very useful tool. While simple repeats such as a garter stitch can be worked without a row counter, however, the complex cable and lace patterns as well as many sweaters and shawl patterns cannot be done without some way to track rows. Sizing and shaping often depend on accuracy, and a row counter prevents the need to count a bunch of rows!
