It’s been a few months since I last did this link-up! I think I just had a period where I didn’t have new, interesting things to share. My Favorite Things is a monthly link-up hosted by Raisa and Eirene, and these are my recent favorites!
Sewing: Pattern Weights
I’ve seen pattern weights before that were pretty much bean bags, but I wasn’t interested in them until I saw these that were shaped to fit pattern shapes. I love that it has curved pieces to put near neck or arm holes, and they are actually heavier than they look. They keep my patterns firmly in place while I trace them on fabric. It saves me time since I don’t have to pin them to the fabric anymore!
Anime: Parasyte -the maxim-
I actually watched this back in December and have been wanting to write about it. This Anime was a pleasant surprise, and I liked it more than I expected to. It’s about parasites that suddenly appear on Earth and have the ability to take over a body if it reaches the brain. After taking over a human, they start hunting and eating other humans.
The story focuses on Shinichi, who managed to stop the parasite from reaching his brain. Instead, it takes over his right hand! The series quickly gets interesting as the parasites evolve and start to question their existence and what it really means to be “human”. I will warn you that the Anime is very bloody and gory, but if you can stomach it, I highly recommend it. It’s one of the more memorable series I’ve seen in a while.
