Australian WW1 Battalion Patches

[MH331]

I wonder if any WW1 AIF experts can tell me when/if this style of patch was worn during WW1. It has the look of a jacquard loom made piece reminiscent of German BeVo badges. I am not in any way casting doubt on the seller I would just like to know more before I embark on collecting these patches.
