Keeping an even edge when knitting

Hi ladies, I tried the technique (slipping the first stitch of a row to keep things even) but I saw a “site” at some point mentioned here where you “purl” the last stitch and “knit” the first…Am I correct? Does anyone have the site? And or know that technique? I am thinking “selvage edge” Can you only use this “technique” with garter stitch pattern? Or does it work on st st too and ribbing???

Thanks alot
Chele
