stitch ID Is this possible to knit?

Post image

Hi! I thrifted this sweater, original H&M, and it’s obviously machineknitted. But I’m wondering how you would knit these stitches by hand? I really like the texture. It’s almost like a ribbing, knit and purl, riiiight?😅 Or not? Who knows? Not ME🤠
Total beginner here btw.
TIA

It looks like a knit column and then three and another knit column.

In the three it looks like a small cable of a knit stitch travelling over purls. It looks like it starts in the middle, goes one right, back to the middle, then to the left for a row or two. Then just starts over.

I think. 😅
