Follow the pattern knitting where the squares are white and purling where the stitches are black. Since we are on the "wrong side" of the fabric, this will create raised stitches where you knit and a stockinette stitch where you purl.

Looking at the pattern, it shows the first five stitches are Color 1, The next five are Color 2, five of Color 1, five of Color 2. In the first picture I have knitted the first five stitches. To switch between, I move the yarn from the back of the work between the needles to the front so that it looks like the second picture.
