They have different heights and widths for example. You could buy a mini food processor and every other day make meals you enjoy and put your husband's portion in the processor and give it a good whizz. My neighbour did this when her husband was waiting for his new dentures. Flavours remain but the texture is removed. I am glad your husband is breaking out and wish you both the best of luck. Your finished square is beautiful and I am thinking of using the squares for an afghan. Good luck.<br />Ron in Mexicoron in mexicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116953864892018638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-23536193751679714152015-09-25T12:40:21.984+01:002015-09-25T12:40:21.984+01:00Glad to hear your husband is finally making the br...Glad to hear your husband is finally making the break out! my goodness how long has he been hospitalized?

I had thought about doing it when the pattern had first come out, but then had been slightly put off because some people thought the horizontal cables worked up messy looking. In any case, yours looks lovely and I am now starting to dream about doing it myself ... <br /><br />Best of luck with your husband's return!
