Frank Jeans Pattern

This is a super pattern with lots of options for variation. I've just finished my second pair of size 10, wide-legged, mid-rise jeans. Instructions are great; I successfully constructed my first ever fly front zipper from the written instructions alone, no need to YouTube video it! I did make modifications. I'm just shy of 5' 2" so chopped off a fair bit from the length and the mid-rise ended up high-waisted on me. However, I like the look, so I curved the waist-band to make it fit better at the waist. Being short I felt the leg width swamped me, so I removed 1.5 cm from the inside leg on all leg pieces which made it more balanced. I also increased the size of the inside pocket bags by 5cm to make them 2.5cm wider. I am a fan of big pockets. I have just finished my second pair, so now have both denim jeans and an olive cotton twill version. Thumbs up all round.

I've made hard pants before, but this is the first jeans pattern I've purchased.

I found the instructions easy to follow, but what I'm in awe with is the fit. The first pair I made fit me like a glove on the first try. I actually made a toile which is not in my photos here, because it doesn't have topstitching, but apparently I could have jumped straight to the good fabric.
The only mod I made is that I added adjustable straps at the waist for more versatility.

I sewed it for my wife (wide leg, high rise). It fits perfectly. Next one will be mid-rise. I used the jeans sewing class. Couldn't do it without it (never sewed zipper before). It was so easy to assrmble the pdf pattern, also a perfect fit for the papers :)

Excellent patron et instructions. Les différentes options de configuration permettent beaucoup de flexibilité dans les looks. Merci

I searched long and hard for a barrel leg pattern that had darts at the knee rather than a curved side seam. This pattern did not disappoint! The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I took a risk and cut my 'good fabric' without doing a toile and my jeans turned out great! I did take the advice to baste first to test the fit and this worked well. I also love that because of the way this pattern is drafted, I can try out a variety of different jeans styles.

I’ve made three so far. It’s a perfect fit and I’m sure I’ll be making more. I made the low rise straight leg.

really like the Frank jeans pattern, I haven't started them yet but I have used Closet core patterns previously and always found the instuctions to be great & the fit.

I am really in love with this pattern. I have made the Ginger jeans and the Jude Jeans (as well as pretty much every other indie jeans pattern on the market) and this pattern is probably my favorite. You get 6 patterns for the price of one essentially and you can’t beat the level of detail with the instructions! The fit is amazing. I have already made 2 pairs (barrel and wide leg med rise) and am brainstorming my third now. The barrel jeans are the perfect level of bowed. So much fun!

I Haven’t sewn them yet, But I appreciate the different versions that I will be able to sew. I have sewn the ginger jeans multiple times and I’m very satisfied with their fit. I am sure when I get around to sewing the Frank jeans I will be happy as well

I recently made the barrel leg/high waist version of the Frank Jeans and all I can say is “WOW!” - the fit is great (even though I had to grade between 2 sizes and take several inches off the length!) and the instructions were very easy to follow. This was my first attempt at trousers, and I couldn’t be happier. Now on to the next pair...

I found the sizing of the pattern was very close to a near perfect fit, and I haven't needed to adjust the rise. Extremely detailed instructions and some invaluable links via QR codes to additional help and suggestions.

I'm super pleased with the pattern.

I made the wide leg, high rise version, in the size which matched my body measurements. The fit was very good right out of the envelope. When I make them again I will shorten the rise a tiny amount ( a cm or .5 inches)- I usually need to make that adjustment on trousers.

In less than a month, I have made these jeans 2 times and just cut out my 3rd pair. The mid-rise is just perfect for my short waisted frame, and the 32” inseam fits my long legs. No mods, I love the fit of these jeans and have made them in denim, organic cotton, and will soon have a pair in corduroy. The straight legs are just right-and not too skinny while the wide leg version has a very flattering fit. Directions are easy to follow too. Highly recommend this pattern.

Great products

Wery good pattern good and cleal toutoriols

The closet core jeans pattern is excellent and fitted all of us well (I made these in a group setting).

I had difficulty getting this printed as it was my first time and the instructions did seem a bit mind boggling but all turned out well when I phoned the printing company

I am finishing up on my Frank jeans today. I love the fit. I made the straight leg mid rise. I did lengthen the pocket bags. I did flat-fell seams for the first time thanks to Nisan's great instructions. Will be making another pair with barrel leg. Thanks.

I have made about 3 pairs of "hard" pants, and this is probably by far the best pattern. The fly zipper is the easiest I have come across to date. The instructions are top-notch (no pun intended). The fit is amazing. I made a bigger size as a result of the waist and then just took in the side seams. Love that you get 3 patterns for the price of one.

Très contente de ce patron, bien expliqué, j’ai fait le modèle taille mi haute jambes droites et larges et j’ai facilement réussi à l’ajuster parfaitement
