Etsy and Chess

Its been a few days since I updated this, and I wanted to give everyone an update on my chess blanket. I've been working on this blanket for a couple of months (I started it in the beginning of March), and now I'm so close to being done it's insane! 

This is half the blanket folded in half. I've only got 16 more squares to complete! Which is really exciting, because this was done really fast compared to the last blanket I did which took 6 months. However, it might be a little delayed because I start working next month and school the month after! 

If you want to get updates on chess earlier, you might want to follow me on Twitter. ^^ I normally post my Etsy links there when I list a new item. 

That's the next thing - I've decided to make an Etsy Account. So, if you have one, add me to your circle ♥ 

I've been doing a lot of crocheting lately - my friend asked me to make her some octopus when she has money, but she asked for a same. Here it is! I really don't have enough room for him in my mass of stuff though, so if you know someone who might want him, head over to my etsy to buy it.

Also - if you would like a commission from me, please email me and check out my dA Gallery for more stuff. 

I hope everyone has a good day! ♥

Pillow Project!

So, I've been doing a lot of little projects in between my chess blanket. Right now, it's in the form of pillows. These pillows like to have intricate designs though. I've got 2 fronts and one completed pillow so far. The first pillow I did was the flag of the Principality of Sealand (smallest nation in the world!)

The second was of the German Flag, which I made because that's where my mother is from and therefore, I have roots there. And my best friend is German. So, I had lots of reasons to do this one. It's not finished yet (sadsad! I really have to get to finishing it.)

The most recent one is this one! I nerded all over the place. Oh sweet Nostalgia ~ Yep, Pokemon. Omanyte. Fossils. Mmm~ ♥ Yeah, this one will probably be done before the German Flag pillow simply because it's more engaging. Its 6 different colours. I would definitely do it differently if I did it again, but I'm happy with it for now. ^^

Yay - look forward to more pillows! I'm excited to keep doing them :D

The Littlest Bishop

In a previous post I said I didn't know how to do the bishop yet. I did have a drawn out version on a chart, but for how I was going, I needed an outline of the bishop. Here's how I decided to do it - simply take the solid square and crochet the outline of it.

Here's the solid:

Isn't it cute? I think this is my favorite piece so far. This also means I only have 39 more squares to do :D Yess~ *cheers*

Here's the other Rook Row (in two pieces)

Also! Just as an update, I've moved deviantart accounts. I'm now Humble-Stitches - also, more Convention information will be up on both my youtube and here soon enough.

See you soon!
