Every third row, work 2 rows of sc, repeat this for 5 times. 15 broomstick rows separated every 3 with 2 sc rows (4 two sc 2 rows).
Once you finish, work 1 row sc all the way round, then 2 rows sc on 3 sides (not on top), next row ch 3 ss in the same stitch, ss on the next 2 sc, the last one, another 3 ch, repeat all the 3 sides.
