You Can Knit & Crochet number 5, 1972

Shelley appeared on many magazines throughout her modeling career. In 1972, she appeared on the pages of Woman's Day 101 Sweaters You Can Knit & Crochet number 5. It was a Woman's Day Super Special Issue and it featured not just patterns but tips for fitting and finishing your creations, directions on how to knit and crochet, instructions on how to line knits and crochets. In one spread, Shelley wore the "Triangle Top," a knitted sleeveless top with a round neckline and triangle details running down the front. She wore it over a pair of matching trousers. A scarf as a headband around her head and a fancy bracelet finished her look. And Shelley looked smashing.
