Knittle
A knittle is a nautical term for a small line made of yarn. I think another definition of knittle could be a little gremlin who makes it hard for some would-be commenters to add their entries onto this blog. If you're having trouble, all I can say is keep trying, or do it anonymously like Shari did and include your name in the meaning. In fact, speaking of Shari, her inventive meaning was the favourite with voters. Good work, Shari.
