The only situation where this makes sense is in street fighting:

hhttaverted knees

turned in parallel to one side while sitting
(not a common expression)

If someone with a seat near the middle of the theater arrives late to the opera, they will have to sidle gingerly to their seat past a row of averted knees — if not scowling faces.
