I know nothing of yardage counters, but a thought comes to mind....
if the yarn is run through the counter and is sort of pinched slightly
in order to get an accurate count, is it possible that pinching is
causing the yarn to twist? If the yarn is more dense and/or more
tightly spun/plied, seems like this would be more likely than if soft.
It also seems like if the twist is affected, it would be inclined to
untwist what's dominant--the plying twist--rather than twist it more.
But it's all I can think of, if you've ruled out any form of adding
twist in the process of running it from bobbin to skein winder, etc.
