Closet Core Patterns - Plateau Joggers
About the Plateau Joggers
The Plateau Joggers are part of Closet Core's cozy yet stylish Montreal Lounge Collection. They've taken the basic jogger pants design and elevated it. With a high rise, unique wrap-around pockets and a comfy elastic waist, they are ideal loungewear at home or on the street.
View A is a relaxed fitting pant with an optional drawstring waist and two choices of ankle finish: a fabric cuff or gathered elastic hem.
View B is a pair of shorts with a gently scalloped hem. Optional back pockets can be added to either view.
The Fabric
Choose thicker knit fabrics like cotton fleece, polar fleece, French terry, ponte, and double knits with at least 15% crosswise stretch. For a lighter pair of joggers, choose medium to heavy weight jersey knits.
