I don't think eastern uncrossed knitting gets the credit it deserves! I almost only ever hear about clockwise wraps in the context of combination knitting, which absolutely works for some people, but having to pay attention to the mount direction of the stitch you're working sounds like an easy way to accidentally twist stitches, especially if you're working decreases. Knitting this way both knit and purl stitches are wrapped clockwise, and the back leg is always leading one, so all untwisted stitches get worked into it. To make twisted stitches you have to work through the front leg. Working through the back loop with an eastern stitch mount is not any harder than the front loop with a western stitch mount. The big upside is that purling is so much easier to wrap. Getting the needle in purlwise is a touch more difficult, but not any more than knitwise is with a western mount.
When I was initially learning to knit, it took me quite a while to learn that this was an option. I couldn't comfortably do a western purl continental, so the next best for me was english left handed. For me is sooo much faster and more comfortable. The only actual issue knitting this way is that there aren't many english language resources on how to do specific stitches, like CDD, so I had to either figure out how to do a stitch on my own, or learn it left handed english first. (left handed english and right handed eastern uncrossed are structurally identical, they're just done from the opposite side, so i can knit backwards by switching to english) Adapting patterns isn't an issue. you literally just have to switch the direction of decreases, and slip knitwise/purlwise because knitwise is the way to not twist a slipped stitch.
so anyways if you don't like purling 🫵 you should try eastern uncrossed
