Half treble crochet, a UK crochet stitch matching the US half double crochet.

Half treble crochet is a basic crochet stitch that falls between a double crochet and a full treble crochet in height. The crocheter wraps the yarn over the hook, inserts it into the next stitch, pulls up a loop, and then pulls the yarn through all three loops on the hook at once. It creates a dense, textured fabric with a distinct third loop visible on the surface.
