The other day I was feeling homesick and I went to my happy place. Yeah, Michaels, the craft store.

I was just going to browse (you always knows this is a lie) and ended up buying a skein the recent launch from Tom Daley’s newest yarn collection.

Who Tom Daley is?

He is a gold winner in diving in the Olympics in Tokyo. But that’s not what put him in the eye of the fibre arts and crafting community.

What made Tom a relevant figure for the crochet and knitting community is that while he was waiting for his turn to compete for the gold medal in the Olympics, he will bring his crochet and knitting projects with him.

In his words: crochet release the pressure and bring calm.

Tom launched a yarn collection!

To my surprise, Tom Daley, and his brand: Made with Love by Tom, now has a collaboration with Lion Brands Yarn.
