Loomylicious Tidbits: Prototypes Galore

Recently, my house has been flooded with prototypes. A loom with a swatch here, another loom over there, skeins of yarn here and more over there. I don't know where to keep them all. They are sticking out of drawers, they are sitting on my couch, and even on my bed. Someone help me!

Prototype 1: This one above, is a GAL Rake. Like the tiny pins? I do, they are nice and smooth. The combo of pins and our tiny pegs is perfect to provide a nice tight tension.

Results: 5.5sts per inch with DK weight yarn. That is the same knit gauge as I get with the fine gauge line of looms.
Fabric Density: Nice and dense.
Test: Passed.

Prototype 2: Then he brought home another one, this one with the pegs farther apart and he wanted me to see what yarn will work best for this one. So I grabbed yarn and sat down to knit. Out of the loom came the most pretty fabric. My stitches were all nice and even and the worsted/aran weight worked wonderfully.

Results: 4.5sts per inch. I can see this one being best for WW and Chunkier yarns. Although Prototype 1 could work also for WW and heavier, I can see the pegs being so closed to each other being a little bit hard to handle, but there were other prototypes to try. I couldn't just close the doors on these two prototypes nor the next ones...not just yet.
Fabric Density: Tight. Dense. Nice.
Test: Passed

Prototype 3: Then I was brought home a little tiny monster, for this one I had to take out my tinnest yarn and try it out. So I grabbed some Patons Kroy, a locally available sock yarn.

Results 5.5sts per inch.
Fabric quality: Nice dense fabric. (white part in above picture)
Test: Passed.

Then I grabbed some thinner sock yarn, Lion Brand Sock-Ease, also available at the local craft stores. This one is a weight category of 1 so I gave it a go.

Results: 5sts per inch
Fabric quality: Not dense, holey. (yellow part in above picture)
Test: Failed!
