How would you go about modeling this?

So I am making a model, and I ran into a problem, no matter what I do I cannot get the upraising of the material looking right. I want to get a raise and bump similar to this ( LINK)

How would you go about making this without a sculpting program?

Can you show us what you DO have? And I am assuming you want the appearance of his knit shirt/sweater/thing?

The pattern could be done using tiled displacement alone with a carefully planned UV.

And here is my model without the attempt-

I was thinking of doing dis-map but I would prefer to actually model it.
