Tab A 9.7: Forgot pattern, know pin- can't change pattern

Hi,
So I made a very silly decision today to change my lock screen to a pattern. I can't remember the pattern though I know my backup pin.

First time I get the pattern wrong a few times, I can use my backup pin to open the tablet. But then I can't change my unlock pattern because I have to put it in to change it....

What can I do? I don't want to erase stuff on my tablet, but it takes 30 seconds to open with pin after incorrect pattern entry...
