the single crochet is great for items that should be thicker and less mesh like than the double crochet.

How to make it:

Make a foundation chain. Insert the hook into the second chain from the hook. Yarn over the hook and pull through so that you have two looks on your hook. Yarn over the hook again and pull through both loops. Now you’re left with one loop, inserting the hook into the next stitch on the foundation chain, repeat the process again until you are finished with your pattern.
