How do you knit a pullover in moss stitch?

('Why moss stitch', "Moss stitch (alternating knit/purl offset every row) creates a dense, nubbly texture that's more visually interesting than stockinette but far more beginner-friendly than cables -- and it's fully reversible.")

('Materials', 'A worsted-to-aran weight wool or wool-blend yarn, needles sized to get a firm moss-stitch gauge (moss stitch pulls in more than stockinette, so swatching matters here).')

('Construction overview', 'The body is worked flat in moss stitch throughout, with simple raglan increases shaping the yoke, so the whole sweater uses one repeating 2-row pattern.')
