Moriko is a versatile and modern sewing pattern for knit fabrics that you can use over and over again for every occasion in every season!

She offers at least 36 different views, from a basic round-neck fitted T-shirt and tank top to a striking one-sleeve dress. The diagonal paneling across the front and back adds a playful edge, perfect for combining colors or experimenting with see through fabrics.

With optional high slits and various lengths, Moriko easily transitions from casual daytime looks to glamorous evening styles. Her cleverly designed overlaps create depth and movement, allowing you to mix up the design like never before. Whether you're using jersey or lightweight very stretchy wovens, Moriko is a true stunner for rebelious sewists.

You can see all the options in the 'variants' tab below.

Level

This pattern is rated at just 1 dot for difficulty—a perfect quick-fix project and ideal for sewists who love working with stretchy fabrics. If you’re new to sewing with stretch fabrics, don’t worry; our comprehensive instructions will guide you every step of the way! Some of the more complex variants are rated at 2 dots.

Fit

This is a fitted design, specifically created for stretchy fabrics and intended to sit snugly. The pattern doesn’t include much negative ease, making it suitable for fabrics with a lower stretch percentage (as little as 20%). If you're between sizes, we recommend selecting the smaller size for the best fit. Additionally, if you choose a fabric with a high stretch percentage, sizing down is advised.

• A0 pattern to print at a copy shop.
  Would you rather not tape pieces together? We got you covered with this large pattern format. If you don't own a plotter you can print out this file in a copy shop or at a fabric store that provides a print on demand service.
• Both A4/letter and A0 pattern files have separate layers with sizes and seam allowances so that you don’t have to trace out your size onto a different sheet of paper and add seam allowance yourself. You can easily uncheck all the layers you don’t need and print only your size with seam allowance. That way you can directly cut out what you have printed. You can also uncheck the seam allowance box if you wish to add your own seam allowances. Don’t forget to tell your copy shop to select the right layers!

Notions

Fabric requirements 

The fabric lengths charts show how much fabric you will need for all variations, calculated on a standard fabric width of 140 cm - 1.55 yd. If your fabric is narrower, you will need more fabric length. For broader or narrower fabrics you can calculate how much fabric you will need by laying out the pattern pieces on the table according to your fabric width and measuring how much fabric length you will need accordingly.
