There are a lot of ways to scale patterns in Illustrator. You can use the Scale tool to change the size of the pattern, or you can use the Size tool to change the shape of the pattern. You can also use the Transform tool to change how the pattern is shaped. The most important thing to remember when scaling patterns is that you want to make sure that the pattern is as big as possible before scaling it. If you make a mistake and scale a pattern too small, it will be difficult to see or edit it later on. If you’re using a vector graphic, you can also use curves and shapes to create more realistic results. Curves and shapes help create a more organic look for your patterns, and they also help keep your patterns easier to edit later on.
