Tokyo: Olympic gold medallist Tom Daley and LGBT icon has finally completed knitting his cardigan, a project he started while at the Olympics.
He was recently photographed knitting while watching a match at this year’s event.
The white cardigan not only featured the Olympic rings but also the Team GB logo at the back. Calling it his “Olympic cardigan”, Daley wrote on social media, “When I got to Tokyo, I wanted to make something that would remind me of the Olympics to look back on in the future. I designed a pattern for the colour work that would signify everything about these games!”
He added, “On the back I went for a classic @teamgb logo, the shoulders have a flag and GBR on them. For the front I wanted to keep it simple and I tried my best to embroider TOKYO in Japanese!” On either sleeve were embroidered a Union Jack and GBR logo.
The 27-year-old British diver runs a separate page on Instagram that is dedicated entirely to knitting.
