pattern definition and meaning

What is a "pattern"?

A pattern is a design or decorative motif that is repeated or can be repeated on a surface, such as fabric, paper, or wallpaper. Patterns can range from simple geometric shapes to intricate floral designs or abstract art. They can be printed, woven, or embroidered onto textiles or incorporated into a variety of materials. Patterns can also be used in fashion to create unique and interesting designs on clothing, such as stripes, polka dots, or animal prints. They can be used to add interest, texture, and dimension to an otherwise plain or simple garment or fabric. Patterns can also be used in the design of household items like curtains, tablecloths, and upholstery to enhance the overall look and feel of a room.
