Materials question

I have Plans™ to make a stuffed-animal-sized version of The Scarf for a friend's bear (he has one, but it's just inkjet fabric, and I want him to have a proper scarf). I've got the pattern sussed, but I'm now wondering: Do I make it with embroidery floss, as I'd originally been thinking, or do I try and find crochet cotton in all the right colors?

EDIT: Thanks for the advice, everyone. I picked up Size 5 pearl cotton on my way home this evening, and have started working up a roughly 1/4 scale version of the Whovian Times pattern on Size 1 needles (of which there are a disturbing number in my late great-grandmother's collection...). My tension is rather haphazard, but I'm certain the recipient (and his human) will be happy with it. I'll be certain to post pictures when I'm done.
