But you could certainly make your own - twist the RX and TX.

I would expect that if you want the "twisted" pair to help you at all, you would have 2 twisted pair... one TX and ground, the other RX and ground. You can also ground the shield around both pairs. The point of twisted pairs is that those pairs are twisted at different rates so that over a longer distance, the induced voltages tend to cancel out. If you twist RX and TX with each other, then you are promoting coupling between RX and TX the same as if you had a flat cable. Technically it's even a little worse than a flat cable since the twisted cable would have to be a little longer.
