It is 100% cotton, so I guess so.

How much thicker is it than sewing thread?

Yes, it is fine for crochet thread, but much thicker than regular sewing thread.

I like to do baby booties this can work?

If you followed a pattern for sport weight yarn and used this thread, the booties would be very small. Aunt Lydia is considered “fine” or “lace” weight and is more like thread you would use to sew clothing with but heavier. Also, the thread is not very soft until it’s been washed quite a bit. I hope this helps you.

the red thread (victory) has 1000 yards?

We do not have victory red in that size.

Best crochet thread

Aunt Lydia's is a great thread. I like the fact that it's cotton, not synthetic, however the mercerization process means it's still not great for the environment.

Awesome

This is the perfect string if you are wanting to add a fabric backing to your crochet blankets because it is thicker than regular thread and more durable
