You can mark on waxed paper with a knitting needle. (at
least the almost-transparent kind available in the US)
I bought a roll-end of newsprint -- only a couple of bucks,
and it isn't appreciably smaller after a year of use. I
mark it with a #2 pencil -- or carbon paper and a roulette
-- a tiny tracing wheel I got from a embroiderer's supply
house in the dim and distant past.
