Ugly Burnt Orange Scarf of Doom

This eyesore was my very first knitting project.  This gave me practice on learning the standard knit stitch.  This is... I forget how many rows of just straight knit.  The big plus is that the chunky yarn is amazingly soft, and it disguises a lot of the flaws.  The downside is that it's rather chock full of flaws.

This is one of those projects that I wish I could just pull out and start over.  I can't let myself, though.  This marks an important milestone--the first project ever.  I didn't even start with "practice stitches", I just went straight into knitting a scarf.

Project Details (I don't remember many):

• Needles = Size US 11
• Yarn =  I've identified this yarn as Lion Brand Homespun Saffron (#0401)! I didn't find it at Michael's, but I knew the type, so I searched online until I found the colour.  (apparently I didn't save the wrapper, but I can look for it next time I'm at Michael's if anyone is really that interested--I got this yarn for Christmas in 2009 along with the needles I used on it)
• Worked in Knit
• Don't remember width or length, too lazy to count, used almost entire ball of yarn
• Fringe was about... 8-10 inches?  I forget.  And yes, I'm far too lazy to measure.
