B's Socks - DONE!

Started Dec 1/09 Finished Jan 20/10

Time for socks for the little girls. I had problems with the short row heel. The left side is right but I messed up the left side. After frogging 3 times, I decide I would try harder on the next sock! The second sock heel is better but I still don't like short row heel.
