The size 16 that I got off of ebay is a Lacis brand and it is a 0.4mm. It is tiny tiny and it works a dream. I have used it a ton in the week I have had it.

Wonderful tip. I was going to get rid of my small crochet hook but now I will be keeping it.

Rose you are a Genius!!!

I've just got the tiniest hook that Sew&sew had in stock!! A size 14 or 0.60


Wonderful!!! It works a treat!

Please pass my thanks onto your 'Retreat group Ladies'

WOW!!!
thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!

I am so glad that I passed this tip along and that so many of you can use the hint.

I found an 11??? I dont know it looma small enoigh so i will try it the ones that I saw that said 14 were huge lol....the lady said that ita he one people use for lace/tatting I can barely see the hook..its a steel one. if this works and i can figure out the proper way to order the correct.size without seeing them i would like to order one of the wood handle ones so it will be harder to loose. Looks like i will have a new tool for my stithy kits

The hook that I took a picture of in the original post it a size 11. It worked pretty good but did not go under the stitches on the back very easy. I like the 16 better for that.
