Help please - right side and wrong side keep flipping

I’m a newbie and the right side and wrong side of my throw keep flipping. I’m not sure which side I’m supposed to be doing what on. The pattern is very simple - 2 rows k1 p1, 2 rows p1 k1. Do I start knit rows on the right side and start purl rows on the wrong side? And how do I know if I am working the right way?

Thank you!!!

You’re probably only doing one row on the RS or the WS side, or an extra one. How many sts do you have?

The pattern is -
RS row - k1 p1 [B]and[/B] WS row - k1, p1, ([I]both[/I] rows start with k1) then you switch -
RS - p1 k1 [B]and [/B]WS p1, k1 ([I]both[/I] rows start with p1)

Mark the RS row with a safety pin or tie a different color piece of yarn through a stitch.
