Hitchhiker Tee
The saddles of this tee are worked from the neck out to the edge of the sleeves and stitches are placed on holders. Then, stitches are picked up and knit from the sides of the saddles and the back and front are worked separately to the underarm. Stitches are bound off for the sleeves, then the body is worked in the round to the lower edge.
