In the yellow yarn, there are single crochet stitches and another stitch. What is the other stitch called?

The answer is:
It is a treble stitch worked
around a stitch two rows below.

(See further explanation below.)

The photo shown is a portion of a mile-a-minute type pattern, which is worked in strips. The burgundy color stitches are shown sideways in the question photo above because the black and yellow are edging rounds, worked along the end of rows of the center strip. The yellow treble stitch is worked around the (sideways) post of a double crochet in the center strip.

This is an afghan I made for my daughter. She picked the pattern and the colors she wanted. The pattern is called "Delightful Mile-A-Minute" in the book Creative Crochet
by Leisure Arts.
