When knitting using the moss stitch does the wrong side looks like every other stitch you purl so you have rows going down of purl but not on the right side
With the moss stitch you do not have rows or columns of either stitch since the stitches alternate over each other. K1, P1 with the knit stitch over a purl stitch on the previous row. Front and back will always look the same.

when doing moss stitch the front of work and back of work should look the same.

Moss stitch is a reversible pattern much like seed stitch
Here are the instructions for both:
