Hi Nancy,
Has your 'neurotic' bobbin got a head of a slightly different shape to the
others? Or has it and very slippery varnish on the head/neck? Both of these
could cause slipping as well.

Too much thread on the bobbin to rewind and keep my sanity--I think the
double
hitch is the solution, but I was rather interested in the cause of neurosis
in
a bobbin. :-)

If it keeps getting longer,
try putting an extra hitch around the neck? It could be due to some subtle
'un-turning' movement that is happening while you work with it. If it does
seem more loosely wound on than the it should be, take the thread off and
re-wind.
