: How to create a geometric pattern stroke in Illustrator (with some constraints)? I want to make the stroke to the left (the green part counts): All I can come up with is a pattern stroke

I want to make the stroke to the left (the green part counts):



All I can come up with is a pattern stroke to the right, but as you can see it is just not right. Every second corner will not align nicely, which makes sense, of course, but how could I tackle this?

Every second corner will not line up nicely because your Side Tile has alternating positions (the line "entering" the left side is lower than the line "exiting" the right side), but your Outer Corner Tile has 2 lines who are equidistant from the inner corner.

They key is to take measurements of your "entrance/exit" points and make sure they match the pattern you are trying to build. In the following example, the corner has been adjusted so that it's "southern" line will align with the "upper" line from the side tile.
