Need to place labels in the center of each arc

Question

For the code below the labels are at the base of each arc, I need them to be in the center.

 \documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes,positioning}

\begin{document}

\tikzset{ell/.style={ellipse,draw,minimum height=0.15cm,minimum width=0.2cm,inner sep=0.1cm}}

\begin{figure}[t]
\begin{center}
\begin{tikzpicture}[>=stealth]
\node[ell] (e1)at (-3,0) {\color{blue}$1$};
\node[ell] (e2)at (3,0) {\color{blue}$2$};
\draw (-2,-1)--(-1,-1.5)--(-1.5,-2)--cycle;
\draw (2,-1)--(1.5,-2)--(1,-1.5)--cycle;
\node[ell] (e6)at (0,-3) {\color{blue}$6$};

\draw[<-](e1)--(-2,-1) node[left]{\color{red} \tiny $y_{11}$};
\draw[<-](e2)--(2,-1) node[right]{\color{red} \tiny $y_{21}$};
\draw[<-](-1.25,-1.75)--(e6) node[left]{\color{red} \tiny $y_{12}$};
\draw[<-](1.25,-1.75)--(e6) node[right]{\color{red} \tiny $y_{22}$};

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Answer 1

Is that what you want? I am curious about the context and the meaning of the triangles. The decimal numbers in (1.25,-1.75) seems unnatural.

\documentclass[border=5mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{tikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[>=stealth]
\path[nodes={circle,draw,text=blue}] 
(-3,0) node (e1) {$1$}
(3,0)  node (e2) {$2$}
(0,-3) node (e6) {$6$}
;

\draw 
(-2,-1)--(-1,-1.5)--(-1.5,-2)--cycle;
(2,-1)--(1.5,-2)--(1,-1.5)--cycle;

\begin{scope}[nodes={midway,red,scale=.7}]
\draw[<-] (e1)--(-2,-1) node[below left]{$y_{11}$};
\draw[<-] (e2)--(2,-1) node[below right]{$y_{21}$};
\draw[<-] (-1.25,-1.75)--(e6) node[below left]{$y_{12}$};
\draw[<-] (1.25,-1.75)--(e6) node[below right]{$y_{22}$};
\end{scope}             
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
