It is not uncommon to have a high LDL when going low Carb. There is a youtube TED talk by Dr Nadir Ali which explains why. So hopefully that will help your understanding. The fact that Cholesterol and not Insulin resistence is still used as a guide for monitoring heart and vascular related issues is a huge issue for me, since it is metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance which are the better guide for such conditions.
