You have straight hair you don't really twist dreadlocks, it doesn't help.... Twisting, as in around....and around...and around, doesn't make knots, not even with lock peppa, so don't waste your time. Rubbing in circles is great for creating knots and rolling back and forth is good for shaping and in some cases, like at the roots, can be used to make knots as well. Now you can call all rubbing, "twisting", if you like, it will help you avoid awkward lines in conversation like the following:
Hey man watcha up to?
Eh, Just watching some tv and RUBBING my dreads....
Sounds a like someone is lonely. Don't over do it, you might go blind...
Now in highly textured, or African type hair, twisting round and round does help. It can be used to start new dreads and to help new growth lock. Because that hair type has so many tight curls they wrap around each other when they are twisted and the curls hold them together.
