Tom has been proving that knitting isn't just for nanas with his much-publicized love of the classic craft and if his latest offering is anything to go by—this knitter is going for gold.
Throughout the 2021 Tokyo Olympic games, the dad-of-one has been seen click-clacking away with his knitting needles.

His hobby appears to have evolved into a family affair as Tom's intricate needlework is often modeled by his husband Dustin Lance Black and their adorable son Robbie.
It's been confirmed that the athlete's passion most certainly isn't just for show, as his other half responded to a tweet showing Tom knitting with, "looks a bit like a lockdown date/movie night on the couch at home to me! #NetflixAndKnit."

Dustin; a film director, producer, screenwriter and LGBT+ activist; began dating Tom back in 2013. The loved-up pair were married in 2017 and they didn't wait long to grow their family, welcoming their son Robbie in 2018.
In the years since their mutual love and support have been well-publicized and there wasn't a dry eye in the house when Tom, after years competing, finally bagged a gold medal for Team GB at the Tokyo Olympics 2021.
After the huge win, his proud as punch husband took to his Twitter account and said, "No words! So so many tears! @TomDaley1994 you're an OLYMPIC CHAMPION!"
