Sock for Bailey

It looks like the sock I made for Bailey is too long. See the blue triangle just above her heel? That should be on her heel, not above it. I'll have to rip out some of the foot length and redo the toe portion. Ack! That's what I get for not using a pattern. Now I know that this yarn is stretcher than the other yarn I made socks with for Bailey.
Here's a picture of the sock after I ripped out some of the foot and redid the toe. It fits much better now. Now to finish the other one.

Doesn't Bailey Look Excited?

Bailey loved her new fingerless mitten so much she wore it to bed. She was sad when I told her that it would take me until Saturday to finish the other one.
