This is a little bit longer than usual, but I really wanted to try to explain how floating selvedges work and why I use them.
A note on spelling: Dictionary.com spells the word "SelvAge" while I used "SelvEDge". In the book "Learning to Weave" by Deb Chandler, it is spelled SELVEDGE, and that is my preferred spelling, although I guess both ways are correct.
