Obviously I am not so dedicated to this blog, despite the time I dedicate to lunching with fellow lady bloggers(hullo Amber+Bawb).
Here is a photo of my new room, in Unicorn Towers. Please pray for its longevity and that it sees plenty of love through it’s doors.

Although it’s nearly over, check out Comic Rehab relapse round. Myself, Amber, Adam and Nicola are drawing 4 panels of comic every 4 days. I’ve been working on the Lovely Spinster series, it’s been really motivating!

It’s like this was made for me, and I just happen to have a few unicorn heads hanging around(unfortunately/fortunately this is not a joke).

Internet Censorship in Australia

Miss Helen — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 05:54:30 +0000

Most of the time, I live under a political rock. I read Chomsky and try to hide from mainstream politics because they are soul crushingly depressing, but wholeheartedly support those who are able to cope and protest when needed. I am coming out from under my rock, disgusted by our government’s plans to censor our internet. Personally, I am not into pornography. That’s my personal choice. Lots of people are, that is their choice. I understand the need to protect childrens innocence, but offensive content is incredibly easy to avoid, and need be sought out. Offensive content is everywhere in the world, and I think government censorship of the internet is oppressive and terrifying. I’m writing letters to MPs and shit. You should also, if you’ve enough time.

Hiromi Hotel(IMA, Brisbane, 2009) is being slowly dismantled. This week is your last chance to check out the Miss Helen Red Riding Hood Tent, cus by the weekend it will be gone.. or moved.. or something! Drop in for some secret tea party, and wish Little Red luck on her mission through life. If your name is Andrea, you need to go and steal our son before he is shipped back to me. My lovely Hiromi will be performing and shutting up shop, so if you’re in Brisbo, be sure to drop in and send my well wishes and deep love.

Forest Canopy Shawl

Forest Canopy Shawl

Originally uploaded by miss helen aka spycore

aka Baby’s First Lace Shawl. I am now completely addicted to lace knitting and finishing this made me re-pick up Ishbel, which was what made me want to knit a lace shawl in the first place. I went for Forest Canopy(nb: to non knitters, bits that don’t make sense are knitting pattern names) because it was written by the designer of Falling Leaves, which I made a year or so ago. I’d been struggling with Flower Basket Shawl for like 4 years, so this was quite the triumph of concentration and well being. It’s so wearable and beautiful and amazing and I don’t think I’ve been as proud of anything I’ve made as I am of this shawl!
