What stitch is this (Fisherman’s Rib or Brioche Stitch or something else)?

I am wanting to recreate a jumper/sweater like this one (oversized fit), rainbow stripes, ribbed cuffs, mock neck. But most importantly, a stitch like the one in the photos.

What stitch is on the main body, and is it rib stitch for the cuffs? Also, what knitting needle + yarn thread size would you recommend to imitate this?

I’ll try my best to estimate the number of stitches per row to imitate this oversized but fitted off shoulder look (haven’t been able to find a pattern online easily). And for the neck of the sweater, less defined, like the blue one.

Thank you so much for reading :slight_smile:

Yes, looks like fisherman’s rib or brioche with 1x1 rib at the cuffs, neck and waist. Might be DK or even fingering weight on whatever needle you need for the gauge.
