For the yarn-obsessed, Mary Beth Temple offers a glossary of knitting jargon and terminology in "The Secret Language of Knitters" with entries like: * Design Elements noun: Mistakes. As in "The fact that one sleeve is five inches longer than the other is not a mistake, it is a design element." * Stress Knitting noun: When the going gets tough, the tough get knitting.
