what is a Merrowed border?

 
Merrowing, sometimes known as overlock sewing or overlocking is the process of wrapping thread around fabric, yielding an efficient and uniform stitch.

Today I was emailed an example from an emblem site that is looking at the difference between a wax finished border and a merrowed border.
