Hi Cindy:

If you want to place stitch markers on to indicate when you get to those 
stitches that get purled, they go directly onto the shaft of the needle. 
The only problem with this mostly garter stitch pattern is that on alternate 
rows, those purl stitches get knitted.  An alternate suggestion for you is 
to place either a locking stitch marker or coiless safety pin directly onto 
the fabric when you are on the purl side.  Every time the face of the fabric 
that has the marker or pin on it faces you, then you will purl, when that 
side faces away from you just knit across the row.

Don't use just any old safety pin as they have a good chance of catching on 
your knitted fabric.

HTH.

Eileen
