New scarf project for Cathy

My friend Cathy gets very cold easily and last year I knitted the Fetching fingerless gloves for her to use at her office. The other day I mention that I still had some leftover yarn from her gloves and would she like something else. She mention a scarf or socks would be nice to have to keep her warm. I pretty much have a love/hate relationship with socks and that she would need to take a number behind my husband and oldest sister who have hinted on wanting some and are still waiting for hell to freeze over to get any. I have vowed to actually finish a PAIR of socks this year. Not just do one sock, get frustrated and stop mid-way through the first sock and never pick the project up again, actually finish a pair this time. We'll see if that happens it's only January right now. The yarn I used is called Dream in Color Classic wool #480 Midnight Derby.



I have selected four patterns for Cathy to choose from:

1) Rittenhouse Scarf by Marilyn Murphy

2) Lovely Leaf Lace by Joelle Hoverson

3) Rainy Day Scarf by Beth Collins

4) Ribbed Scarf with Crochet Edging by Ann Budd (you'll need to scroll down to find this pattern)

Any suggestions on what I should make for Cathy?
