1. Slip last stitch purlwise with yarn in front AND knit first stitch through the back loop. This creates a distinctive chain edge with each chain quite open.
2. Slip first stitch purlwise with yarn in front. This also creates a chain along the edge, but the chain is more compact than #1 and the edge is less prominent.
3. Knit last stitch through the back loop AND slip first stitch purlwise without moving the yarn to the front. Makes a clear series of slanted loops around the edge of the fabric.
4. Slip first stitch purlwise without moving the yarn to the front. Looks very much like #3 except the selvedge is flatter (meaning, less bulky).
5. Slip first stitch knitwise. Gives a wrapped edge stitch similar to #4, except the wrap is more horizontal.
6. Just knit. The classic knot-like plain garter selvedge.
