And I’m back from Australia (where I got to meet a Kangaroo!). One of the bonuses of super long plane rides is lots of time to draw comics.

The Cowichan sweater that Meela is wearing is inspired by the Cowichan sweaters designed by the Coast Salish peoples of the Pacific Northwest. If you’re interested in knowing more about the sweaters and the source of the inspired design, please check out Hills Native Art. We spoke to  this organization that provides authentic sweaters made by Coast Salish knitters and designers in order to ensure the design was honored and true.
