This drop-shoulder T-shirt is a great project for practicing picking up the stitches along the back shoulders to knit each front; once that is done, everything is joined at the underarm and the body is knitted around seamlessly from the armholes down. Because Tilda does not have real sleeves (the impression of sleeves is created by the dropped shoulders), it does not use the Cocoknits Sweater Worksheet.
