Travellers Chess Set
I saw this on Etsy and just thought it was the most clever thing in the entire world. It is a chess set made out of shaped felt pieces, on a synthetic felt board. The great thing about this is that the synthetic felt tends to stick to itself, so pieces don’t go flying off every time there is a breeze.
Better yet, if your in the middle of a game and it starts raining, or its time to move, you can just roll the pieces right up where they are, and then resume the game further down the road.
Machine washable, I have to say I was mightily impressed with the clever inspiration that went into this design.
