The verb is "purl". Thus, to invert a stitch is to purl.
it is an abbreviation for Stockinette Stitch also known as Stocking stitch . It is basic stitch where you knit one row and purl one back and repeat just these two rows written as Knit 1 row Purl 1 row Knit 1 row Purl 1 row
When you knit something, the other side is the purl side. If you purl something, the other side is the knit side. Filaments or not.
If you are alternating each stitch (knit, purl, knit, purl) the pattern is called ribbing. If you alternate each row (row 1 knit, row 2 purl) it is called stockinette stitch.
if you are doing stocking stitch you can just reverse it to make a textured pattern so on knit side you would purl the stitch and on purl side you would knit it.
