There are many objects that one can find which would suffice as knitting needles. You simply need a pair of long-ish matching stick-like objects with a point-like tip.
Chopsticks are an obvious choice, however, not everyone has a handy pair of chopsticks in their home.
Wooden dowels work well, as long as they are small enough to fit in a pencil sharpener that would serve to make a point at the ends.
Two sticks from the yard could be sanded, then whittled to points.
If you take the ink things out of two pens, that would work, as long as they don't have the small clip used to attach them to a piece of paper.
There are things all over the place if you look hard enough. Be creative!
Pencils do not work, because of the lead point, which would do stuff to the yarn.
Toothpicks do not work either, because they are simply to short, and stitches start falling off all over the place if toothpicks are used.
And don't even think about attempting to use straight pins. It is simply impossible.

Can you knit a hat with straight needles?
You can if you seam up the side and it it is a great thing to do for beginners when you have the right pattern, which is the difficult part. Alternatively, if you do not wish to use circular needles you can use DPNs (double pointed needles) to knit in the round. Often in hat patterns which use circular needles you will need DPNs anyway, so it is good to have some of these when you knit in the round.
