Description Meet Frank, the jeans pattern that adapts to you. Inspired by classic heritage denim with a close fit through the hips and a cheeky cut through the seat, Frank offers mix-and-match options for rise and leg shape so that you can create the jeans of your dreams. With traditional details like a five-pocket design, fly-front zipper, angled yoke, contoured waistband, and belt loops, Frank will become the foundation of your denim wardrobe, a pattern you'll remix and repeat for years to come. To build your perfect jeans, choose from the following rise and leg shape options: Mid-rise – sits just below your belly button for everyday comfort High rise – sits approximately one inch below your natural waist for a vintage-inspired fit that is still comfortable to wear Barrel leg – a contemporary shape with knee darts and a slightly cropped inseam Straight leg – a true classic, available in 30" and 32" inseams Wide leg – a sophisticated, timeless silhouette available in 30" and 32" inseams Share on social with the hashtag #ClosetCoreFrank Fabric requirements Yardage Sizes 0-20 - 45" / 1.14 m wide All VIEWS ~ Sizes 0-8 = 3 yd (2.75 m), Sizes10-20 = 3.25 yd (3 m) Sizes 0-20 - 58" / 1.5 m wide All VIEWS ~ Sizes 0-8 = 2 yd (1.85 m), Sizes10-14 = 2.5 yd (2.3 m), Sizes 16-20 = 3 yd (2.75 m) Sizes 14-32 - 45" / 1.14 m wide All VIEWS ~ Sizes 14-20 = 3.75 yd (3.45 m), Sizes 22-32 = 4 yd (3.65 m) Sizes 14-32 - 58" / 1.5 m wide All VIEWS ~ Sizes 14-20 = 2.75 yd (2.55 m), Sizes 22-26 = 3.25 yd (3 m), Sizes 28-32 = 3.5 yd (3.2 m) Suggested fabric type Mid- to heavy-weight non-stretch denim, ideal in 10-13 oz weights. Please note that heavier weight denims will require more “breaking in". It is also possible to use stretch denim for this pattern, but we recommend a maximum of 2% lycra content. Since stretch denim has more give, you may find you need to size down through the hips and legs.
