    Those purple striped socks are exactly the reason I exclusively knit socks two at a time toe up (64 stitch, size zero needles), then if my gauge changes in changes equally (among many other reasons).

    When you're spindle spinning, it helps to losely wrap the roving around your wrist so it doesn't catch on the fibre you're actively spinning. A good book to use is Respect the Spindle by Abby Franquemont.

May be something to try!
