Whenever I open a pattern in illustrator from the swatches pannel I cant do anything to it without it freezing or becoming non responsive- I have tried copying the swatch into a doc on its own -closing everything else and then editing to see if the files are too heavy but even then it doesnt work even when its a simple pattern.
I have also tried saving the working file on my desktop to see if that was the issue.
Please let me know if there are any other options here!

Do you edit the pattern by double clicking in the Swatches panel?
Or by dragging from the Swatches to the artboard?

Did you already restart your computer?
Reset your Preferences?

Maybe you could upload the file to Dropbox or the like and share it? Or at least show a screenshot?
