New rope, odd carrier strand

[Crimsonking]

I picked up a length of poly kernmaster, and noticed through the package a discolored section of one carrier strand. It seems like a section where a spool ran out and another one was spliced in, but I’m curious if anyone has understanding of what might be going on.

And I thought I eagle-eyed too many small, weird things.

Blurry vision make for easier cleaning.
