Plat more than 2 segments ?

Trying to weave a basket, I’ve done the handle but next is the top rim. I looked for weaving / braiding on YouTube but can only find 2 segment tutorials. Looking at the photo circled in red, if I use 2 segment version then end on looks rectangular, I could twist it but still not the desired look. Anyone know how to do several segments making it look more circular ?
