Asterales are mittens decorated with a big, beautiful sunflower. The are worked cuff-up and feature an Indian thumb gusset. The all-over colorwork is a fairly easy pattern thanks to short floats and I recommend working it in just C1 and C2. You can duplicate stitch C3 and C4 onto the finished pair to give the design more umph.
