American Knit Uniform
Items from W.W. I

• from the 1918 Issue of
The Fleisher's Knitting and Crochet Manual •

Posted to the right are a smattering of assorted catalog photographs that were torn from the W.W. I issue of Fleisher's Knitting & Crochet Manual that depicts the variety of Quartermaster approved scarves, wristlets, "helmets", sweaters and watch caps that were available to the Doughboys for service "Over There". In some cases the knitting instructions are intact.

Some might be amused to see that the photographer's stylist had used the 1902 blouse rather than the more suitable 1912 issue.
