For pattern knots admitting genus-one bordered Heegaard diagrams, we show the knot Floer chain complexes of the corresponding satellite knots can be computed using immersed curves. This, in particular, gives a convenient way to compute the τ-invariant. For patterns P obtained from two-bridge links b(p,q), we derive a formula for the τ-invariant of P(T2,3) and P(-T2,3) in terms of (p,q), and use this formula to study whether such patterns induce homomorphisms on the concordance group, providing a glimpse at a conjecture due to Hedden.
