Step into the spotlight with this Jynx crochet pattern! Known for its dramatic dance-like movements, flowing blonde hair, and unmistakable personality, Jynx is one of the most unique Pokémon from Generation 1.

Assembly of your crochet Jynx
I always recommend pinning pieces in place before sewing.
Start by assembling the upper arm and lower arm/hands. Make sure to point fingers the correct way. The upper arm sits on the last 3 rounds of the lower arm at a slight angle.
Then attach the arms and chest pieces. The chest pieces sit side by side on the front of Jynx. They are sitting right over the edge between purple and red. The arms sit on either side of the body, just above the dress-line.Again be sure to position them so fingers point in the correct direction.
Now attach the hair-pieces one at a time. Start with the bottom one. Sew it to the crown of the head with the part having no strands of hair facing the front (so her face will be visible). Attach the second hair piece on top, again being sure to leave the gap for the face. I only sewed on hair around the crown of the head. The individual strands of hair can be sewn down if you prefer it.
Lastly attach eyes and mouth. The eyes should be stretched slightly to form tall ovals. They have 1,5-2 stitches between them. The mouth is placed in the rnd below the eyes and in the center as a circle.
Circles in black can be embroidered on the white part of the arms to make Jynx more realistic.
