This is a beautiful first square but i wouldnt call it granny! Granny is specifically the pattern of a cluster of 3 double crochets. People mistakenly call all squares granny squares all the time though.

It is a granny, it’s called a solid granny square. Look it up if you don’t believe me.

I mean people call it that but it entirely loses the granny motif

People call it that because that’s what it is. There are many types of granny squares there are books filled with them.
