Yarn/hook question

Yarn/hook question

Hi!

I’m a very very novice knitter and an absolute noob to crocheting- I can hook loops and do single and double crochet. I’m getting the hang of patterns, my eight year old niece is waaay ahead of me lol.

I’m trying to do zoom art projects or book clubs with my nieces in These Trying Times, and this one wants to make those cute little Star Wars animurugi- eventually. Idk if it’s ok to link pattens here but I found a bernat stuffed cat I think is basically a big ball with ears and paws that I feel like I can manage to start. It wants bernat baby velvet or baby crushed velvet yarn, which it says is a 4/worsted, and a D hook.

Finally! The question!

We can use any similar weight yarn, probably, right? If we actually change to baby weight yarn (that’s fingering, right?), how many hook sizes down do we go to get a tiny sized kitten?

I am sooo not a fly by the seat of your pants kinda girl, and I haven’t even knitted for years. I found a video tutorial of this, I can probably pull it off, but I know my girl and she’ll want to make about a hundred. I figure if we can make a big one and get the hang of it then we can inch down to a super basic thing before we start tiny light sabers and such. Right? Right??

Thanks!
