Breaking the knitting language barrier

catinmylapI found a few gems today in the Ravelry listings of sock patterns. Now and then I find a pattern I'd really like to try that isn't available in English. Some are in Japanese, which I haven't yet found a solution for, so I just try to ignore those patterns, but it's kind of like trying to ignore a chocolate cake.
One of the patterns I looked at today was in German, and although the designer didn't provide any translations, she did provide a link that seems really helpful, it's to a pdf International Glossary of Knitting Terms. So I thought I'd provide that link here as well as a few others. I don't usually make my posts public, but this one will be.

The blog String-Or-Nothing links to the pdf I mentioned in my first paragraph above.
The forum Dave's Garden has a page full of international knitting term links, here.
Happy knitting!
