I apologize to you for my mistake. I must have confused the two methods. I
am sure that your work is lovely and your stitches are not twisted. I
should never have attempted to answer the question. Thank you for pointing
out my error.

In the English method the yarn is held in the right hand and the
needle picks up the back of the stitch.

Er, I learned to knit in England, and over there they do not pick up the
back
of the stitch unless they want a "twisted knit". Otherwise, they (and I)
pick
up the front of the stitch.
