Illustrator Swatches

I created a swatch pattern and I don't know how to save it so I can use it for other projects. I tried downloading it and saving it in the user-defined section but when I access the user defined section in another file, my swatch isn't there.

An Illustrator Swatches file is just an Illustrator .ai file which can be saved and loaded in the Swatches panel.

Because a Swatches file is just an .ai file it does not have to be saved in the place where swatches normally are saved, but it can also be a file saved and loaded in your documents or desktop.
