Shelley on a spread that appeared
on the Simplicity Craft Catalog, 1974
Shelley appeared on the spread which featured Simplicity Pattern no. 6065. It was a pattern for Crocheted Tops that could be worn during the day or on a night out in town, on its own or as a vest to finish an outfit. The dressy casual pullovers could be made quickly using the traditional broomstick lace stitch. She wore two versions of the Crocheted Top. She wore Version 1, a Crocheted Top with 2 colors of mohair yarn - one in a solid color and one in a variegated color. She wore it over a long-sleeved turtleneck sweater and pants ensemble and accessorized it with a matching necklace. She also wore Version 4, a Crocheted Top with one color of mohair yarn - in tweed. She wore it over a long-sleeved collared shirt and pants ensemble and accessorized it with a matching scarf around her neck. In both versions, Shelley looked spectacular.
