knitting end stitch

Knitting… OK… Am I accidentally doing a Purl Stitch? ?
I only know ONE stitch… What I thought was the Knit Stitch… When I knit I always keep the full-needle in my Left Hand… So when I finish one row, I transfer the NOW full needle from my right hand to my left.
Does that mean that by reversing the position, I am accidentally doing a Purl Stitch? When I knit, I end up with an up and down pattern that runs width wise across the project… EVERY TIME I KNIT… but when my grandmother knits, the up and down pattern runs up and down the project.
What am I doing differently? I THOUGHT that I was doing exactly what she was doing… LOL! I’m so clueless… But I like the way my stitches look so I’m not complaining, I’m just confused.
If you want to get stockinette stitch where one face of the fabric has the bumps and the other side is smooth columns of V's you need to knit one row just as you have been doing, but the next row must be purled. To purl, when you turn your work (put the full needle in your left hand) you need to leave the yarn in the front of the work and insert your right needle into the stitch from right to left and wrap your stitch to bring it through.
