RIDGE
Upper
Chain as long as it takes to cover the lenght of the body – this number has to be divisible by 5
+1 – it’s chain 76 in my case
Starting on second st from the hook – (sc, dc, tr, dc, sc) x15
Side (make 2)
Ch 76 (chain as many stitches as in the upper ridge)
Starting on second st from the hook – (slip stitch, sc, dc, sc, slip
stitch) x15
Sew it along the body.
