   I had a bit of trouble seeing your photo on an iPad. Lighting in the shot might have been improved if taken at an angle rather than straight on. If you could try that, it might help.

   I don’t know that this technique has a title but from what I see it might be a combination of a “Roll Coat” and “Knockdown”

   Roll thinned mud on wall with a thick nap roller cover in different directions and then variable knock down with a blade/trowel.

   Is this for a patch or a new wall?

   And very difficult to patch.

   Sorry, maybe too closeup.
   Experiment. Grab texture brushes, big wore out pain brush, even staple a crumbled up towel to a board, wet it and try with bucket mud……thinned down.

   Not right, flat blade it off and try again.

   On scrap drywall.

   I remembered doing this once. Crumbled visqueen, 4 mil on a board.

   Patch,

   We ended up getting close enough of a patch and blend. Rolled on with a super think consistency and using a 24" pool doing figure 8s.
