Hi all,
I am currently translating clothing descriptions and have come across the above in the following context:
Jersey de punto calado y espiga, con estampado multicolor. Tiene manga larga, cuello redondo y canalé en vivos.
From what I've seen online, "calado tipo espiga" seems to be a stitch type, but I'm not sure what the translation into English would be! Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

decorative knit / ancy stitch
I think in English the exact stitch name is unlikely to be used, unless it is something common like cable, moss or rib stitch, etc.
