The downloads is Gone and I can't get it back

Open Finder, go to "you" (whatever you call your account), and you'll see a Downloads folder in the bottom-right corner. Click and hold and drag it into your Dock (on the right hand side mind you) and presto, you've got your stack back.
 
It worked!

Thanks so much for the easy tip. I thought I lost stacks for good. I just dragged my 'Documents' folder next to the 'Trash' icon in my dock. Then I right clicked on it and choose Fan for my personal way of viewing it. :)
