I surfed the internet a little bit and found a website with lots of most beautiful Bolero and Shrug patterns, as well knitted as well crocheted.
But of course you can make other clothes from the single crochet patterns ;-)
I find best on shrugs that they don’t take so long to make as sweaters and the like ;-))
Although I feel the same constriction about shrug-making as for the crocheted Bolero: first I want to lose some (more) weight.
A fine excuse, isn’t it? ;-))
Addendum: it seems that Jessica Tromp put the pattern somewhere else: 60 bolero-crochet-patterns.
You find the photo under bolero 6a and directly to the right the directions on making the bolero.
The instruction for the medaillon seems to be further up on the same site where the yellow bolero is.
This is the direct link, but it doesn’t work for me.
Happy crochet :)

Where and how can one obtain the pattern for the above bolero?
Mari,
I have not been here for a certain time, therefore I can’t answer but now: to get the pattern, simply follow the link ‘Bolero and shrug patterns, for women, knitting and crochet’ under ‘Links:’ and look there for the same photo as above.
It is called ‘bolero 7a’.
Enjoy crocheting the bolero :)
Please can someone post the above pattern on this website because I have tried everything to get this pattern and desperate for it. no matter what I do I cant get into the Jessica Tromp website.
susan,
sorry, but the publication of this pattern would be a copyright infringement.

Really love this pattern, and was under the impression that it is a free pattern, but just cannot manage to open it up. What is required??
Mary,
it is a free pattern.
The pattern consists of a chart of the medaillon and a sketch on how to put the different medaillons together.
Perhaps you’re searching for written instructions?
This is e.g. a complete pattern (although for a different bolero).
If you get an ‘forbidden’ when clicking the link, go to Jessica Tromps page with the shrugs and click on any of the thumbnails.
Does this answer your question?
