Abstract: This paper describes the foundations of a differential geometry of a quaternionic curves. The Frenet-Serret equations and the evolutes and evolvents of a particular quaternionic curve are accordingly determined. This new formulation takes benefit of the quaternionic structure and the results are much simpler than the present formulations of quaternionic curves.
