Thanks!

Use Hatchkit. If you don't have it, be very nice to someone who does......

Creating it is easy with Hatchkit. -- but not without knowing the dimensions and spacing. What is the pattern for?

If you have this hatch in cad you can add it to revit as follows:

In AutoCAD Isolate a portion of the hatch and export it as a DWG (using WBLOCK)
-In Revit, import this DWG (not link) and explode it.
-The hatch pattern will become available as a Revit Pattern, which can be renamed and/or edited

Above is copied from a previous autodesk knowledge post.

Another solution if you have it in cad is to import the pat file

Yes you can, but tiny arcs such as used for frits can run into problems with Revit's minimum stroke length.

What are your pattern dimensions?
