Borrowed Poncho

a closeup of Shelley from a spread for Modern Needle/Craft, 1971

Shelley appeared on several spreads in Modern Needle/Craft magazine back in 1971. In one spread, she modeled "A Poncho Big Sister Can Borrow". It was a smart poncho with a lively stripe detail and generous fringes that anyone could crochet. It could be made in two sizes; the "double" sized version could be worn as a skirt. Shelley showed how each piece could be worn.
