a closeup of Shelley from a 1972 DuPont ad
Shelley appeared in an ad for a Dupont contest in 1972. The "Labor of Love" Knitting contest was open to all knitting lovers who were interested. All they had to do was submit a sweater, afghan, cape or poncho, scarf or shawl, either one of those, to the specified address for judging by a panel made up of people selected from the editorial staffs of leading knitting publications. The winner got a trophy, an all-expense trip 3-day trip to New York and a "boatload" of yarn for future projects. In the ad, Shelley modeled an afghan made from yarn by Dupont.
