Question
I am a beginner. I am doing a towel topper but don't know what this means. Row 1: with A (what does that mean, with A?) Row 18: Join B (what is B) with a sc in first dc on right side of towel.
Thanks
Hi Nancy,
At the beginning of your pattern does it list the supplies needed, such as yarn and needle size? Usually "A" and "B" would refer to colors you're using. For example "A" might be blue and "B" might be green. So when your pattern says "with A", it means "with blue".
If this does not answer your question, please send me more detail, or better yet a link to the pattern online if you have it.

Expertise
Traditional Crochet and Filet Crochet (not clothes) I do more thread crochet than yarn.
Experience
I have been crocheting for over 50 years. As a child growing up in New Orleans, LA, I had aunts and older cousins who taught me, but now they are all gone and sadly, there is no one who crochets in my area. I hope to be able to meet fellow crocheters through this website, and I'd be delighted if I could help someone answer a question. I'm sure I'll be asking my share, also.
I specifically enjoy doilies and afghans. I really like designing filet crochet. I don't make clothes, other than hats and scarves.
Education/Credentials
I learned as a child in the 50's from aunts and older cousins.
