Blankets
Usually, yoga studios have plenty of blankets for use by their students but because of the restrictions brought by Covid-19, it will be better to buy your own.
Once you have one, you can fold the blankets which can then be used as support to lift the hips when doing a seated pose or as support when doing a lying pose.
For example, when you sit cross-legged, you may put the blanket under the sit bones which elevates the hips above knees.

But just in case you don’t have extra, you can always get one for yourself for a small price of 13 dollars.
