Tee is worked from the top down, flat individually until the armhole depth is reached. Once armhole depth is reached, the tee is joined together to be worked in the round. Once the underarm to hem depth (on the right side, no tail side) is reached, some stitches will be bound off and then the tail will be worked. The tail stitches will be worked flat with periodic decreases so that a long triangular tail is formed. Shoulder stitches are seamed together before working the sleeves. Sleeves are picked up and worked in the round and then bound off.
