How strange the query and answers disappeared and have now appeared. Anyway ...
The first two rows are as follows:
Row 1 (RS): k2, p1, k5, p7, k3; rep across Row 2 and all even rows: Knit all knit sts and purl all purl sts as they face you.
Each subsequent odd row has a variant of the k#, p#
So when I turned the work to do Row 2, I knit when the V (or flat stitch) faced me and purled when the crossbar (or ridged stitch) faced me. So I think what I ended up doing was merely reversing Row 1 (in other words, p3, k7, p5, k1, p2). But if that's the case, why not just say so!
I say "I think" that's what I did, I can't check it as I've already pulled it out in order to experiment with other patterns. I'm quite looking forward to doing this afghan project. It's for the daughter, who is going off to college in cold, snowy Philadelphia.
Thanks for your help, All!
