Garter stitch: knit sts in right-side and wrong-side rows.

Allocation of sts, depending on the size:
Size S: 1 selvedge st, 4 sts before the pattern repeat A, pattern repeat B 4 times, 5 sts before the pattern repeat C, 1 st after the pattern repeat C, 1 selvedge st;
Size M: 1 selvedge st, 6 sts before the pattern repeat B, pattern repeat B 4 times, 8 sts after the pattern repeat B, 1 selvedge st;
