Does anyone know how to twist a normal stitch?

Hi everyone,

I’m doing a very basic knitting scarf but I’ve seen my friends scarf supposedly it’s a normal stitch but is twisted so the interlinking circles forms a line rather than a circle.

Anyone have any idea?

I’ve posted a diagram I drew myself in comparison to the normal knit that I’m getting.

Thanks!

Just knit through the back loop of the stitch instead of the front loop.

Yes, knitting through the back loop twists the stitch.
