Hello friends,

How would I build this white and black pattern in illustrator? (note I am completely, new to illustrator)

There's so many ways to do things in Illustrator. I would have used the Perspective Grid.

But you can't make an isometric grid with the perspective grid.

Good point Doug. I hadn't looked at it closely enough.

Would you know how to draw this with a pencil and a set square? If so, you could probably achieve it after reading the following and practicing as you go:

How to get started with drawing in Illustrator

How to paint with fills and strokes in Illustrator

How to draw with the Pen, Curvature, or Pencil tool in Illustrator

How to use rulers, grids, and guides in Illustrator

and these would be useful to finish it off:
