Hmm, when I say selvedges I mean doing things like knitting the first and last stitch of every row or slipping the first stitch of every row. It makes edges that lie flat (rather than curl in on st. st. pieces). I'm sure it would be ok with a lighter weight yarn because you could put more "fabric" into the seams and it wouldn't necessarily bulk up like it does with Big Wool. Yay, mattress stitch! Hi Lyn!

It's lovely and must be very cosy in cooler weather :-) The neckband looks fine to me and I like the way it drapes around your shoulders. A real nice touch! BTW, are edge stitches and selvages the same thing? Both my latest projects have edge stitches and I plan to use the mattress seam. It was the same with Leafy Raglan and the seams looked ok to me... maybe because the yarn is lighter weight? Another wonderful project, Felicia!

Garter stitch selvedge'd be way to thick to seam up for such bulky yarn as Rowan Big Wool. Hi Felicia, you were right.
