Why yes, I am a beginner...

I started learning to knit late last year, but kinda forgot about it after a pre-xmas tidy up. During the (short!) time I did knit, I only learned how to cast on and do knit stitch.

I picked it back up again today. I can still cast on and knit stitch, so I thought I'd try the purl stitch (following this guide). Thing is, even though I'm 99% sure that I got it right, it felt like it was far too easy...

Should I be worried, or is it actually something that's just that easy, even for a beginner?

Actually for me grafting was hard for a long time--I'd do it exactly like the pictures (or video) said, but it always came out looking like a row of purl instead of a row of knit. It turned out it was because the way I learned to knit was really knitting through the back loops instead of standard knitting, and that changes the outcome of grafting!
