Kano, I'm a lefty knitter, too. A friend taught me to knit Norwegian style, and that solved all my tension and twist-stitch problems. I can even do pretty cables! (I was twist-stitching on the knits, purls were ok)
Is there a yarn shop where you can ask someone to watch you knit and help you fine-tune your technique?
