Knightsbridge Tipple challenge

I've missed quite a few of the DivaCZT's challenges recently. Some I would really like to have done, so maybe I'll go back to them later, especially the new tangle Well. This week's challenge is to use only Tipple and Knightsbridge. These are both favorites of mine and I teach them in my first class. I had a tile with a string already drawn using a board game leftover as a stencil. It had been hanging around for quite some time, never really appealed to me, but it seemed to invite Knightsbridge so away I went.

For more ideas about using Knightsbridge see this post. And for several variations of Tipple go here.
Just for interest's sake I thought you might like to see the string I started with, and the tile without shading.
