🧶Daley said: "When I got to Tokyo, I wanted to make something that would remind me of the Olympics to look back on in the future."

🧶Daley learned to knit and crochet prior to the Olympics to help him stay calm.
Now, he's hoping his hobby will raise money for the Brain Tumour Charity.
In 2011, Daley's father Robert died from a brain tumour
