Winning his fifth Olympic medal isn’t the only reason the world is obsessed with Tom Daley. The British diver first went viral during the Tokyo Olympics for knitting in the stands, and his passion for the craft has continued into the 2024 Paris summer games.
The beloved Olympian, television personality and LGBTQ activist uses knitting and crochet as a way to calm his nerves before competing. In fact, he credits his Olympic gold win in large part to the craft. Hoping to share his joy and appreciation for the yarn-centered activity with the world, Daley compiled a book of 30 original projects titled Made With Love for fans to follow at home.
