Artist ‘Geeky Hooker’ created these adorable crochet Disney characters, which have been placed throughout the Bay Area of San Francisco.
This series contains three mini crochet Disney characters including Baymax from ‘Big Hero 6,’ Anger from ‘Inside Out’ and Mike Wazowski from ‘Monsters Inc.’ Each little character was placed in a location that was relevant to their original Disney film. Over this past weekend each of the characters was adopted by random people who were drawn to the tiny knit creatures.
Geeky Hooker has created many wonderful crocheted characters including superheroes and other iconic cartoons. Leaving these three Disney characters throughout San Francisco allowed people to play with the tiny dolls and interact with the artist via social media. The small dolls brought joy and happiness to those who came into contact with them, which further exposed the artist's talent.
