    Broken selvedge

    I recently made a kilt from a heavy weight wool. After I finished the kilt I noticed that the selvedge was “broken”. It seems that along the entire selvedge, there is showing a line where the threads seem to be “broken”.

    Has anyone seen this before?
    What can I do to avoid this from happening again with my future kilts?

    Hope the pictures are clear enough.
