[LAWS]3. A player must not intentionally knock the ball forward with hand or arm.[/LAWS]
Did the player really intend to "knock the ball forward"? Yes, it was a deliberate attempt to play the ball but nothing in the OP indicates his intent to make it go forward. And, since he regathered it, it wasn't a knock-on. Play on!
I think the YC for an attempted intercept is just plain wrong.
