What is the smallest crochet hook size available, and what type of yarn would you use to crochet with it?.. I am looking to crochet some mini amigurumi type things… I have used 100 % cotton worsted weight yarn up to this point , obviously that wont work for small hooks, but have no idea what to use.
I honestly didn’t think that was the answer you were looking for.
I thought you were thinking more like the smallest aluminum (B-2.25mm).
This page has a hook size to thread size comparison.
So you could buy the hooks for the size thread you can find or the size thread for the hooks you can find.

Crochet thread (often cotton) comes in US sizes (given in order from larger to smaller) #3, #5, #8, #10, #20, #30, #40 and smaller.[1] Size 20 is the smallest I have used. I find it nearly as small as sewing thread.
In the past I could find crochet cotton thread in size #3, #5, #10, and #20 in Walmart. Now the selection is reduced and colors were always limited.
