WPA poster circa 1942. Text reads: Remember Pearl Harbor Purl Harder on a yellow background with a hand holding up a pair of knitting needles in a V for Victory position.
A WPA poster urging citizens to "Remember Pearl Harbor — Purl Harder!" Eight million women (and men!) produced more than 63 million articles for soldiers during the war.
Even spies used knit and purl patterns to pass codes!
