I have knitted many sweaters in the round and have not heard of doing a selvage stitch. This is typically used to make sure the edges stay flat, good for picking up stitches later.
Can you please explain the purpose of the selvage in this pattern?
I am also assuming that this means if I am to cast on 49 stitches than I am really to cast on 51.
