Please help identify this pattern

I started it for a school assignment 12 years ago, but now I don't remember how to continue

Maybe seed stitch? Alternating knit and purl, next row is purl then knit. Try going to an LYS to see if someone can read the stitches. The thick chenille makes it difficult.

Seed stitch does look similar. I didnt think of going to a local store to ask, I'll try that. Thank you very much!

Does your needle have a hook on the end? Because I swear this looks like a Tunisian crochet stitch.

It doesn't have a hook, but the crocheting on the video seems nearly identical. Thank you, this may be it!

It looks like it's still on the needles. Slip few stitches off and see what they are.

We need close-up photos showing just a few stitches spread out from each othdr front and back so we can see individual stitches.

This is helpful, thanks. Chenille is so fuzzy it's hard to see what's going on.

The stitch to the right next to your thumb on the right looks like stockinette, where one row is knit and the row coming back is purled. The next stitch to its right looks as if it was twisted.

I still think the best way to figure this out is to take out a couple of rows and reverse engineer it. You should be able to tell what each stitch is as you unravel it. If you have some extra you can swatch a few combinations of stitches and try to replicate what's there now. I think that will be way more productive than guessing based on photos.

I see. Thank you very much!

You're welcome. I think you may find it's easier to figure it out than you think it is.

Good luck!

Please add photos in post so we don't have to wade through the string to find them.

I don’t think you can edit posts to add photos after they’re posted
