Default Re: The future seen from the past

Do you mean it's correct to say 'I knew she'd be working late, so I wouldn't call her at the crack of dawn' as future in the past without adding any word to the sentence? Just
Changing 'won't' into ' wouldn't'.
I'm a little confused. When I report ' won't' I change it into ' wouldn't. Is it OK to use this modal instead of 'didn't' as future in the past?
Thanks again Sue
