Happy New Year! I hope you had a good Christmas and all the best for 2022. This is the year that I’m determined to master a new hobby, inspired by Tom Daley when he came on my show as a guest last month. Tom is a man of many skills, not just an Olympic gold medal-winning diver and TV pundit and presenter, but he’s also an excellent knitter.
WATCH: Lorraine Kelly has started knitting!
I’m sure you saw him sitting in the stands during the Olympics knitting a fantastic chunky jumper emblazoned with the “Team GB” logo, and he knits for his husband Lance and their toddler son.
When Tom came on the show, he presented me with a pair of needles and a big ball of fuchsia pink wool and I was instantly hooked. We sat amicably knitting and chatting and I loved it.

She’s already made a pink scarf
I was taught to knit when I was at Strathclyde primary school in Bridgeton, Glasgow when I was about ten years old, and although I haven’t picked up a pair of knitting needles in almost fifty years, it all came flooding back to me. I remembered how to cast on and how to do plain and purl stitching, but that’s about my limit so far.
I made Ruby (my daughter Rosie’s mini sausage dog) a scarf out of the pink wool, as well as a misshapen woolly jumper, and now my family and friends are living in fear and dread of me gifting them hand-knitted woolly socks, mittens and balaclavas.

Angus my wee border terrier is my current victim and I’m knitting him a coat out of the thick wool usually used to create fisherman’s jumpers.
I’ve bought a Knitting for Beginners book and hope to move on eventually to creating jumpers for myself. I’m actually finding it a real stress buster. There’s something very soothing about knitting and satisfying about making something, even if it is just a bright pink scarf for a gorgeous little puppy.
