Crocheted Afghans for Homeless

Thank you Marsha M.  This is a continuation of the large number (I'm still not telling you the number, lol), of ghans/lapghans I picked up at her house awhile back.  If you've not been seeing them, or reading the posts, the short version is I'm chipping away at laundering and blocking them for her, as she's a primary care giver.  This one is actually shades of blue, not gray as it looks in the picture, but it was a cloudy day when this one was laid out to dry and even with the light on, the true color didn't come through.  It's a center square of sorts, but not the traditional granny type stitch, then as it widens, she moves into the granny style stitch.  Will make a nice childs ghan or lapghan, doesn't everyone like light blue?
Crocheted side to side.  What fun colors.  This might be with a bit lighter yarn as it's quite light weight.  Reminds me of sun, heat, and sky.  
This style is very open and lazy and also light weight.  4 triangles perhaps?  Or maybe it's crocheted sorta in the round?
And six big granny squares joined and edged for this style.  Another fun color combination.  So....thus far Marsha had 30 that were counting in 2020, and these 4, plus the previous 3 gives her a total of 7 thus far in 2021, and her combined total of 37...........but no, I'm not done with laundering and blocking, so please keep checking back.
