edged

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'moved sideways' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for edged that I've seen before include "Sidled" , "decorative border" , "so moved forward slowly" , "Like a knife <" , "Moved sideways slowly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
