Sketches are Don't Starve Together exclusive items, introduced in A New Reign. They can be given to a Potter's Wheel to unlock a specific Chess Piece for crafting. Once the sketch is given to a Potter's Wheel, the figure becomes available to any player near the Potter's Wheel. Note that destroying a Potter's Wheel which has taken any Sketches will also drop the Sketches. Sketches can be used at a Cartographer's Desk to get one Papyrus. All Sketches have a fuel value of 15 seconds.
Performing each of the above actions will unlock the respective chess piece in the world. This allows for the matching trinket or sketch to be found in Tumbleweeds. Chess piece trinkets may be traded with the Pig King to obtain its corresponding sketches.
The Sketch itself is just about the shape of the piece to be crafted, the color of the crafted pieces will be determined based on the materials used to craft it, where using Marble results in a white piece, using Cut Stone results in a black piece, and using a Moon Shard results in a glassy blue piece.
