Another hat : this time, a Panda hat !

I've made another hat for one of my daughter's friends who adored the piggy hat I made previously ... but this little girl is a lover of pandas.

Who am I to say no to a panda lover?  Plus, I love gifting a handknit hat ... makes me so happy.  (Even happier when I cast on for the project at 11:00AM and am weaving in the ends at 3:45 ... and the party starts at 4:00.  Nothing like a little last minute knitting to put some excitement into your weekend, right?)

My daughter is wondering when *she* is going to get a handknit animal hat ... ;)

Notes:

Pattern : Bamboo the Panda hat  (From Knitted Animal Hats book) 
Yarn : Yarn Bee Tender Touch (?) - from Hobby Lobby, and it was machine washable. That's my defense!
