do you mean dk or double knit yarn ? if so this is basically equal to USA sport yarn. It is non American version and knits at between 5-6 stitches to the inch using a number 5 - 6 needle ........ OR ..... did you mean just using the yarn double as in using two strands at once? if your pattern says use the yarn double then just use two strands at once by pulling from two skeins and holding both threads together when your work .
dk means double knitting yarn.
No, they are not. double crochet: Yarn over, insert hook into specified stitch, yarn over, pull through stitch, yarn over, pull through 2 loops on hook, yarn over, pull through remaining 2 loops. half double crochet: Yarn over, insert hook into specified stitch or space, yarn over, pull through stitch (3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull through all 3 loops on hook.
"Double knit," refers to the weight or thickness of the yarn. Double knit is between sport weight and worsted weight. It is named for the knitting technique that most often calls for this weight: double knitting. Double knitting is the knitting of a two sided fabric that is reversable with a two color pattern on one side and the negative of that pattern on the reverse side. It is called double knitting because both sides are knit at the same time on one set of needles. "4 ply" refers to the number of individual strands twisted together to form a yarn. A yarn with two strands is called "2 ply," and so on. The number of plies determines, to a degree, the fluffiness or smoothness of a yarn. Yarn with more plies is generally smoother and less fluffy. The number of plies does not determine the weight or thickness of the yarn. It is possible to have a double knit yarn that is also 4-ply, or to have a thicker yarn that is has more or fewer plies. The same is true with a thinner yarn.
Almost like you make the double crochet. Wrap the yarn over your hook or yarn over, put it through the loop and pull the yarn through, then wrap the yarn over the hook again and put it through all three loops on the hook
To do a double crochet do a yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch, do a yarn over, pull the yarn through the stitch, yarn over, pull through 2 loops on the hook, yarn over, pull through the last two loops on the hook.

Yes, DK weight (also called double knitting) is 8 ply yarn
It depends on the size of yarn used. For worsted weight size 4 yarn, it reccommends to use a size g or h hook. Check the yarn cover to see which size hook is reccommended for the yarn.
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. Yarn over once more and pull that through the 3 loops on the hook. That completes the half double crochet.
4ply is NOT a yarn weight. Many 4ply yarns in the US are worsted weight. DK is a lighter yarn weight.
You will have to sew it together.
