During her appearance alongside Tom Holland, Zendaya revealed her love of knitting, and noted that she attempted to knit together a rug, but promptly gave up after it became “too tedious.”
“I tried to start a new hobby while we were shooting Spider-Man,” Zendaya said. “I got one of those, I don’t know if you guys have them, but they’re little rugs that you can make, and you basically, yarn-by-yarn, you attach the thing and it color coordinates to a thing, I chose puppies. I got about four squares in and I was like ‘I’m done with this, this is too tedious for me.’ So I got like, a little corner of a rug.”
The actress went on to reveal that her mother taught her how to knit, and that while she only knows how to make scarves, she was able to make the cast scarves for Christmas. Tom Holland then spoke up about how he would be busy filming some big fight scenes and would often catch the actress on set knitting.
“We’d be doing the most intense fight scenes on set … and I’d be there, blood all over my face, I’d been fighting the Goblin, and I’d turn around and [she would] just be there knitting,” said Holland.
