a selvage stitch is a single stitch you keep at each end of your row for sewing . I have seen it done a few ways depending on the way you sew . some people just keep the stitch in stst , the English patterns will have you slip 1 at the start of every row .. ( I dont like this for the way I sew so I never do it this way ) one person I know like to keep it all knit on the tight side .. try it as st st first and do a couple little swatch .. sew together and see what you like best and then just do that for all your selvage regardless of how they want you to do it ..

Should you sew with or against the selvage?
The lengthwise grain of the fabric has less ease/give - this is perpendicular (vertical) to the selvage. The crosswise grain of the fabric has more ease/give - this is the horizontal cut from selvage edge to selvage edge. If you fold the top edge of one selvage edge to the bottom, opposite edge, the triangle this forms is the bias, which has the most ease and less stability. Determine which angle of the article you are making needs give and which one needs stability. Remove selvage edges as they pucker and do not lay flat.
