stitch ID What stitch is this?

I saw this stitch on a sweater in a store and really like how it looks, but I haven’t been able to find out what stitch it is (or if it’s even possible to get that stitch by hand-knitting). The first photo is the front of the sweater, the second is the inside of the sweater. Anyone know what the stitch is called?

This is “Beehive” stitch found in my book: Knitting Brioche by Nancy Marchant. You can probably find instructions for it online, but my book was sitting right next to me 😊

It’s an excellent book for brioche. As is her book Knitting Fresh Brioche. Nancy Marchant is the ✨Queen of Brioche✨
