Knitting language

I am familiar with the k1 meaning knit one sort of language. I even know the use of 'frog' to mean undo knitting (rip it, rip it, rip it), and stash to mean the yarn etc that a person has (often hidden from a spouse). But I came across a new one today. SABLE - which means stash acquired beyond life expectancy.

Hmm.

Lol, SABLE, I love that one. I once heard 2 laadies at a quilting show discussing where they would hide their purchases when they got home, one of them was intending to remove the side of her bath & stash stuff in there.
