Texture identification help

Texture identification help

I'm no drywall expert but a reasonably proficient DIYer. I'd like some help identifying the method used to apply this ceiling texture. Skip trowel? Knockdown? Some kind of pattern roller? Some multi-phase combination?

Context:

I've got an area in my 12' living room ceiling on a 45 degree corner that needs some love. Looks like the joint tape has slightly cracked along its edges in a couple spots. The tape is flush, it's not bubbly at all, and I tried getting a knife under there but can't, so it's still relatively adhered to the surface. It's just a couple thin, straight lines right along the edges. House is 28 years old, I bought it in 2023, and it's just a spot that annoys me and I'd like to touch it up a bit so it's not so obvious. Texture probably doesn't need to even be perfect, it just needs to be close-ish so it's not a crack and not a weird spot of flat drywall in an otherwise textured ceiling.

I've had this hat for 18 years and decided to give it a little makeover to go with the rest of my vibrant hats collection. Not the traditional content for this sub but I did color it with alcohol markers and thought it came out fun.

Hello! Spent the day yesterday at the lovely Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus, OH for a friend's birthday and snapped a couple pics of some of their bonsai collection as we were walking around. Unfortunately, the bonsai garden is currently under construction, so all the trees were moved to other various locations (with suboptimal backdrops...), but I thought you might like to see anyway!
