crochet afghan

This was the 1st afghan made by me almost 2 decades ago, this is 6' long & 5' broad.
this was made by making the blue squares, which were joined together with the next color, then each row was done on back loop only to get the ridge effect. you can do the same with any no. of colors or single color of ur choice.

This is an 8" square afghan. I made 2, for front & back, made a 2" handle to go all around the bottom & the sides. As I'm bad in stitching, asked a tailor to put the zip, pockets. Made a small design on the top.
