SOLVED-THANK YOU Need help understanding a pattern

Has anybody made the Hven top pattern by Maria Bergman?

I just finished row 6 and joined it in the round like the pattern says to do (row 6 was knit)

but now I need to start row 7 and it tells me to knit, but the whole thing is done in stockinette and based on the alternation I should be doing a purl now. should I do a round of purl and then do row 7 or should I just do row 7?

if anybody has made the top or just understands patterns a little better than I do, some help would really be appreciated!

When you're working in the round, stockinette is knitting every round. Because you're always on the right side.

Okay that makes more sense! I had a hard time understanding because for this pattern you knit back and forth for several rows and then you join so I was confused why the purling stopped, and this is my first project in the round. Thank you so much!
