You Can Knit & Crochet number 7, 1973

Shelley appeared on many magazines throughout her modeling career. In 1973, she appeared on the pages of Woman's Day 101 Sweaters You Can Knit & Crochet number 7. 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 "Classic Sweater Shirt," a knitted long-sleeved top with a notched collar, knitted cuffs and a self-tie belt. She wore it over a pair of matching textured trousers. A fedora hat, a scarf around her neck and a fancy watch finished her look. And Shelley looked chic and smashing.
