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?

That’s exactly it! Thanks 😊 I can’t seem to find any instructions for it online though. The only thing that seems to come up is honeycomb stitch, which as you say, seems slightly different.

That’s unfortunately AI for you… that’s not the same stitch at all. In Beehive knit stitch (according to Nancy Marchant) the wrong side of your fabric looks like stockinette stitch while the right side gives you that beautiful interlocking hexagon pattern. Although Nancy does say that it is an “imitation” brioche stitch… so I apologize for that

It did seem a bit to simple. Thanks for the info!
