After I finished the moebius cowl, I decided to try out a new idea I had run across: making a sweater top-down in one piece. I combined that idea with another one: making your own sweater pattern based on a formula of proportions. But I didn't want to make an adult-sized sweater as an experiment, or even a child-sized one. So I made a sweater for my son's teddy bear.
I made a guage swatch, measured the teddy bear's neck, waist and arm circumferences, and did a little math. The whole thing took me less than a week. And since I used leftover yarn from another project, it didn't cost me anything either.
I think I'm ready to try this method on a sweater for my son now.
