How to Create SVG Patterns

What is a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Pattern

It is a type of fill used in SVG vector images characterized by the repetition of a graphic element throughout an area.

The best analogy is to imagine the SVG Image as a wall and the pattern as a tile with a graphic design repeated across wall's surface.
