Knitting update

What I've been knitting while riding the metro
Can you tell what this is supposed to be? Does it look okay? Is this any good?


Suggestion/Comments/Ect very much encoraged because this is the first time I tried using two colors and I designed the designs on my own. This is totally patternless and just based (loosely) on the 14th c relic bags.

It's Spike!! Me likey Spikey. :-)

Did you use one of the Atlantian Embroidery Guild's Spike patterns or did you free-form him?

Either way, the bag rocks! Not that I expected anything less from you... :-)

Thanks! I kinda free formed. I couldn't find the Spike patterns (I knew they were somewhere but couldn't remember where) so I went to paintbrush and made up a grid and started to play with the grid until I got a pattern I liked. I then followed my own lil grid pattern.
However, I really had no idea what I was doing. This was one of those "You should make a bag! It doesn't require a lot of yarn!" and me going "Oh! Pretties! I need pretties!". So, I slowly figured out what to do and it ended up being this.

Definitely a pretty!! And the Spike is very, very nicely done. Can't wait to see it in person. Of course, that means I'll have to make it to an event soon! :-)
