When we use the Eastern way to knit and purl for working back and forth, the stitches are not twisted. We get twisted rib only when we use this method for working in the round. Happy knitting!

Hi Ella. Thank you for giving this method a try :-) No, the stitches are not twisted, even though we work them in a slightly different way. Note that this method works only for knitting flat. If you knit and purl stitches the Eastern way when you work in the round, you will get twisted rib.
