I was going to suggest something like a hose washer and a hose clamp, 
but the cable tie/key ring is pretty much the same thing.  Another thing 
that might work is velcro combined with something round. Baling wire 
would be completely ugly, but you could twist a loop around the mic and 
have another loop that goes around your finger--sort of a figure 8 with 
the two loops perpendicular to each other.

Would something flat that you can stick between the fingers of your mic 
hand work?  If the mic is tapered toward the cord end you could drill a 
hole in something flat--plastic, wood, whatever--that's big enough for 
the mic to fit into about half way and hold the other end between your 
fingers.

When I'm trying to figure something like that out I'll go to the 
hardware store and wander around looking for inspiration.
