Markina Dress Itch to Stitch sewing pattern.
The Markina Dress strikes that perfect balance between polished and effortless. With its clean lines, tailored details, and comfortable knit construction, it’s the kind of dress that looks put-together without sacrificing ease. The button placket and waistband create beautiful shaping, while the gently flared skirt adds movement and femininity. Whether styled for work or everyday wear, Markina delivers a refined silhouette with the comfort you love from knit fabrics.

Lining (for the inner waistband and decorative pocket flaps, if using) Use a very lightweight knit fabric with stretch similar to the primary fabric (50% horizontal stretch). Choose one with excellent recovery, preferably containing elastane. You may also use the primary fabric, provided it is not too thick.
Interfacing Use lightweight knit or tricot fusible interfacing.
