Selvage (knitting)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The selvage of a knitted fabric consists the stitch(es) that end each row ("course") of knitting. Also called selvedge, the term derives from "self-edge". The selvage may be considered finished; it may also be used in seaming garments, or finished and reinforced using crochet or other techniques.
There are many methods for producing selvages.
