That is my YAML by the way.

Nothing wrong with the YAML. Must be something else.

This comes from the deep recesses of the compilation process. Try these

  1. Confirm working install by creating a new Rmarkdown document, save with modifying and knit.
  2. If ok on default file, make a copy of failed document and remove any LaTeX or HTML markup
  3. If ok, check encoding is UTF-8

From a quick search, I found this

I seems to be a LaTeX issue related to characters in labels.

Can you check all your chunk labels for any special character that could trigger this issue ?
