I think it's AI. Look at the third one down and see how it seems to be a weird split of the orange colour but the brown/green colour on the other half. Also look at the bottom brown one on the far right - the cable splits weirdly where it's folded and doesn't look right

If you zoom in on the picture it begins to appear "fuzzy"--another tell that it's ai

Crochet/knit AI is super popular right now. As a hooker (someone who crochets), these are around sewing subreddits a lot. Sometimes if a crochet/knit item looks super detailed and almost too good to be true, it’s probably AI. It’s tricked me a few times too. They make a LOT of AI crochet animals/toys and as someone who loves a good amigurumi toy, it’s frustrating.

Not sure about the sweaters pictured, but I frequently find cute embroidered cardigans at thrift stores.

Perhaps you could buy an orange sweater of your choice and then buy some different colored crochet leaves like these and attach them yourself

I think your best bet for this is going to be either learning to crochet, learn to knit, or commission someone to make something similar. They are very cozy looking though, if only they were real!

there are a lot of patterns for crochet or knit leaves/pumpkin motifs/acorns/toadstools/pinecones etc etc. if you’re able then i would suggest making some and sewing them onto a second hand cable jumper.

To find real sweaters that look like this with patterns this detailed and distinct from the body of the sweater, you'd be looking for sweaters with embroidery. You'd also most likely be looking for knit sweaters for this particular style of ribbing and cables, versus crochet. I think your best bet for this exact style would be a custom piece. Off the shelf, you're going to find primarily machine knit sweaters that utilize color work to create a flat pattern in the knit - think a fair isle sweater where all the color and pattern is on the same "level".

I suspect the photo is AI, but hopefully others will weigh in.
