a simple yet very cool vector pattern design in Adobe Illustrator make sure
you've got the stroke selected only and then press P on your keyboard to
activate the pen tool click once and hold down shift into a perfectly
straight line we're going to use various different stroke styles for today's
vector parttern design and for this line here we're going to use this one
with the line highlighted press shift and W to access the width tool and then
go in and edit your line in any way you want for your vector pattern design
once happy take the star tool and hold down the alt/option key and shift at the
same time to create a star like so flick the stroke over to a fill and then press
V to access the selection tool so you can then arrange the star in any
position you want below the star use the pen tool to make another line and use
the same method as we did before editing the thickness and the stroke style
you can hold down the spacebar key to navigate around the screen and they
really straight there he always helps activate the smart guides when designing
vector patterns or we need sign for that matter when you're using a day beuliss
rater the magenta line will help you to see when your shapes and objects are
aligned perfectly select everything and then group it together with command or
control G then press R on your keyboard to access the rotate tool and interact
the blue tag icon down to the bottom point of your design click once and then
hold down the alt/option key and click again type in 18 degrees and you can
then preview the change here but we want to copy it instead of pressing ok once
you duplicate today press command or control D to repeat the process over and
over that's the first segment of our vector pattern design in today's adobe

smart guys and form you that you lined up with the center of the design
increase the stroke way in and edit the stroke stylus who did before
press alt access the ellipse tool and they make a perfect circle with the line
group the circle and a new line together and they repeat the process for at 8 in
the group around 18 degrees make sure you place the target in the middle of
the vector pattern design before repeating the process over and over

are completely original meet by myself so when the I published on the website
make sure to pick one out for yourself so you can support the channel the
