The half double crochet 3rd loop stitch gives your crochet project a knit like look. Instead of crocheting into one of the top stitches (the front or back loop) you crochet into the 3rd loop, a unique loop to the half double crochet stitch. This also gives your project quite a bit of stretch and creates a little bit thicker item.
