Technically, I did not finish.  Here is my photographic evidence of the night.

You will notice that when the flame is being extinguished, I still have my knitting on the needles.  I still had a few minutes left of knitting to do.

Since we got to cast on during the beginning of the opening ceremonies, I figure I have until the end of the closing ceremonies to finish.  The knitting is complete!

Is it a completed garment?  No.  But I did it!  Here's my knitting olympics analogy:  I skated a clean program but got disqualified because I forgot to wear my costume.

I so know how those athletes feel that put in a gold medal performance only to come in 4th or fall down at the last second.*

There's always the Sochi Knitting Olympics.  See you in 4 years.

*please note the sarcasm.
