Thanks for the help.
The spring weight scarves are very light weight and definitely more of a fashion accessory than something to keep your neck warm in the cold. They are also woven as a plain weave.
The Reiver scarves are by Lochcarron and while still a light weight wool, they are a bit heavier (the same weight as our lady's skirts) and are woven in a twill weave.
If you think she'd appreciate a bit more body to the scarf, then I'd go with the Reiver. If she'd rather have something she can wear year round, then the spring weight would work.
