 or selvage (US English) is the white woven edge on both edges of the fabric width, which prevents unravelling or fraying and is a result of how the fabric is created.

In woven fabric, the selvedge is the edge that runs parallel to the warp (the longitudinal threads that run the entire length of the fabric), and is created by the weft thread looping back at the end of each row. Traditionally an old 29 inch shuttle loom was used. The terms selvedge and selvage are a corruption of ){kind=small}
