It is at least lace but I am not sure if it is considered thinner as
I have not worked with it. Maybe find the one you are planning on
using and call the companies customer support. Typically, yarn
companies are good at having people that can answer these types of
questions. I did email with a company and asked a similar question
about a particular yarn and they were able to help me.<br>

Tracy is referring to crochet thread which is NOT the
embroidery/cross stitch floss that you are talking about. The
skeins come in a cake like sugar and cream cotton.<br>

<p>I use it for embroidery. It might be difficult because it
is designed to be split into six strands. A hook might tend
to go through the floss instead of catching it. Also, there
are very small scaines. It would take a lot to crochet
anything, but since I rarely crochet, I may be wrong. <o:p></o:p></p>
