A single reed is one piece of wood (normally bamboo) that needs something to vibrate against to create sound.

A double reed is two reeds that are like a sandwich and they vibrate against each other, so they don't need a mouthpiece or ligature. An oboe or bassoon use double reeds, and double reeds are harder to blow on than single reeds.
