A half double crochet is made by putting yarn over your hook, inserting your hook into the stitch and yarn over again, pull that back through the stitch, which will leave you with 3 loops on your hook.

What does purl mean in crochet?
As far as I'm aware, there is no "purl" in crochet, but there is in knitting.Knitting has basically two stitches, a "knit" and a "purl."In a knit stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, by passing through from below. In a purl stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, from above. This creates an effect, where on one side, a knit stitch appears to be knit, and on the other side, the same stitch appears to be purled. This explains why directions for knitting often speak of the "right (or front) side" or the "wrong (or back) side" of a project.Crochet has stitches which are a slip stitch, a chain stitch, a single crochet, a half crochet, a double crochet, a triple crochet, a double treble crochet, and even a triple treble crochet. I have not seen any patterns which call for a larger than triple treble crochet stitch.
What is the hardest stitch in crochet?
What one crocheter finds difficult, another person might find easy, so it is hard to say which would be the most difficult stitch to work for you personally. The hardest stitch is probably the first one you learn after the chain stitch, usually either single or double crochet. The stitch itself isn't hard, but it is awkward at first learning something new. Once you know the chain, single and double crochet, half doubles, trebles and all the variations beyond the treble come easily because they are so similar to the single and double crochet. As with knitting, it isn't the actual stitch that brings an opportunity for life-long study of crochet, but the infinite number of ways those stitches can be combined and manipulated. Bobbles and clusters, working around posts, reaching to stitches in rows below, twisting, picots...all of these are simply manipulations of the three basic stitches (chain, single crochet and double crochet). Addition to first answer: A good answer, but -- I once surveyed 12 crochet experts on this exact question, and they all said the bullion stitch.
How do you crochet with your finger?
To crochet using your fingers only, use the same procedure as when using a hook, but just use your fingers instead. You will end up using your forefinger as a "hook" holding the parts of the stitch on your finger, and "hooking" your finger to "draw through" the material to make the stitch. I would hazard that the "best" stitches to make using a finger crochet technique would be the shorter stitches--slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet. I think that with taller stitches, you might begin to not have room on your forefinger to "hold" the loops necessary to make the stitches. Look at the attached video link and see finger crocheting single crochet stitches is being done.
Can you substitute a half double crochet for a double crochet?
For a double crochet, you yarn over and pull a loop through the target stitch. There are three loops on the hook, the one you started with, the yarn over, and the loop you just pulled up though the target stitch. Pulling a loop through two loops at a time means two strokes, or a double crochet. A treble builds on this.For a treble crochet, you yarn over twice before pulling a loop through the target stitch. That means four loops on the hook. Pulling a loop through two loops at a time means three strokes, or a treble (triple) crochet. A double treble builds on this.For a double treble crochet, you yarn over three times before pulling a loop through the target stitch for a total of five loops on hook. Pull a new loop through two loops on the hook four times.To put it another way: The procedure is to yarn over three times, insert hook into the indicated stitch, yarn over and pull through the stitch (5 loops on hook at this point), yarn over and pull through two loops at a time, four times.Just as in the double and treble above you increase the number of beginning yarn overs and the number of times you pull through two loops.It seems like it ought to mean 2 x 3 or six loops, but it doesn't. A triple treble isn't 3 x 3 either, it's four yarnovers and five loops.The abbreviation for a double treble is typically dtr.
