A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books. ~Walt Whitman

Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed. ~Walt Whitman

Although you may not have a garden of beautiful flowers to walk undisturbed, these wristlets are a constant reminder of the delicately glorious flower called Morning-glory. They are, indeed, Morning’s glory, with varying colours from a soft pink to a brilliant red to an intense purple.

Techniques used are: ssk, k2tog, yarn over, and picking up stitches. A knowledge of blocking is also recommended.

Note: For Continental knitters, it is suggested to use size 2 (2.75 mm) and 4 (3.5 mm) needles to get correct gauge.
