I'd welcome some opinions.

I'm knitting a throw, which will be rectangular.  I'm knitting the top bit
in a wavy pattern, which is Feather and Fan on a stockinette base.  Someone
here posted it as part of a pattern, and it's nice.  I'll probably put it on
the bottom edge, too.

I've made the sides of the throw in seed stitch for 6 stitches.  I'm
debating making the top edge in garter stitch for maybe 3 inches, or
sticking with seed stitch for 6 rows.  I'm thinking a bit of garter might
make the top stay better where a person puts it, say, if she wants to sit
with it pulled up around her shoulders or something like that. 

I have a shawl like that, and the garter does make it stay put, but it has
maybe 12 inches of garter, and I don't want more than say 3.

What do you knitters think?
