Chaos Crochet Challenge- Round 4

BySusan Myers on crochet

Welcome to the Chaos Challenge Crochet Along—where the spinning wheel is in charge and anything can happen!

What is a Chaos Blanket? Instead of carefully planning every row, we’ll let chance choose the yarn color, crochet stitch, and number of rows. No overthinking, no second-guessing—just spin the wheel and see where it takes us!

I’m creating my own Chaos Blanket using a special set of rules, and you’re invited to join the fun. Grab your yarn and crochet hook—it’s time to embrace the chaos and create something completely unique!

Are you brave enough to let the wheel decide?

Want to join along?  Gather your supplies and join me on Mondays and Thursdays beginning September 21, 2026.  I will be posting instructions and links to instructional videos for each stitch as we choose them.  Sound like fun? I will be posting each round here on my website, in my Facebook Group, Facebook Page, and on Instagram!  Follow my social media or come back here each week and join in on the fun!

Round Four

I began round one with a spin of the wheel to choose which of the 50 stitches would be used for round two.  You can download the free Crochet Stitch list HERE. Chaos Crochet Stitches. I used the Free Spinning Wheel Random Number Generator that I found here to choose which stitch.

The spinning wheel chose number 17.  The stitch I will be using for this round is called the Sedge Stitch! I closed my eyes and chose a color from my bowl of yarn colors…It is now decided!  Round four will be in Dark Denim, the stitch will be the Sedge Stitch and I rolled dice for the number of rows and it will be 7!  Let’s get started!

Sedge Stitch

The Sedge stitch is a lovely textured stitch that is very simple to create.  It is a great mix of sc, hdc and dc and once you get rolling, you really don’t have to count much.

Step-by-Step Instructions for the Sedge Stitch
If you prefer video, I found this video from Daisy Farm Crafts.
Row 1: Chain 1.  In the 2nd chain from the hook, work a half double crochet (hdc) and 1 double crochet (dc).  *Skip 2 chains.  In next chain, work 1 single crochet (sc), 1 hdc and 1 dc.  Repeat from * across until one chain is left.  Work 1 sc in the last chain.  Chain 1 and turn.
Row 2: Work 1 hdc and 1 dc into the very first sc from the previous row.  *Skip 2 stitches (the dc and hdc in the cluster below).  In the next sc stitch, work 1 sc, 1 hdc and 1 dc.  Repeat from * across. End with 1 sc in the final stitch.  Chain 1 and turn.
Row 3-7: Repeat row 2.

(Adjustment Row) Take the opportunity before going into Round 5 to count your stitches.  If you need to make an adjustment of stitches, use your Dark Denim in a row of single crochet to make the adjustment.

Sedge Stitch Crochet

I enjoyed creating the Sedge Stitch.  It worked up quickly and would be a great stitch on its own for a blanket.  Once I learned the stitch, I didn’t have to spend a lot of time counting.  (Note: be sure to do a count to be sure that you still have 200 stitches before beginning Round 5). 

Be sure to come back on Monday, October 5 for Round 5!
