    I have a thing for handbags...

    RETICULE - a woman's small handbag, typically having a drawstring and decorated with embroidery or beading.

    RETICLE - a pattern of fine lines or markings built into the eyepiece of a sighting device.

    Although somewhat interchangable the correct word in English is I believe GRATICULE.....sounds so much nicer
