Can someone illustrate what really is the difference between the two?

Design patterns help promote easier program changes and object reusability. Loosely coupled objects are easier to reuse and change. Keeping objects small and specialized promotes loose coupling. Design patterns are built with many small specialized objects.
The generalized UML pattern framework is an object-oriented framework that provides support for the base classes that the standard pattern implementation model extends. The specialized patterns framework provides additional functionality such as role-marking and traceability features for pattern participants.
A design pattern is a concept, or a receipt for how to get a specific problem done.
A Framework is code ready for use, usually packaged in a way that makes creating an application much easier.
It does not make sense to explain the differences because they are two totally different things.

Even though they are two very different things, one can argue they both solve a software architecture problem
a design pattern solves many software architecture issues (about creation, behavior, concurrency, ...) with different pre-defined design. (design being an implementation of an architecture topic)
a framework is based on the Hollywood Principle ("Don't call us, we call you"), where you implement some high level requirements as specified, and leave the framework do the rest of the work, calling your implementations.
A key difference is the scope cohesion:
design pattern have a tight scope:
framework has a large scope:
For instance, .NET is a framework composed of:
