BC Garn

BC Garn carries passion in its genes. Bo Carstensen founded the family business in 1972 - not out of business acumen, but out of love. His mother was a weaver, his father a carpet yarn merchant, and Bo learned early on that true quality comes from not taking what is there, but creating what is missing. His mother was already producing her own yarns because she couldn't find what her heart was looking for for her projects.

Over 50 years later, this spirit lives on - in the hands of Britta and Carsten Kremke, who took over the Carstensens' “baby” in 2018. It was a coincidence of fate that their names matched the brand so perfectly that BC Garn BC Garn was able to stay. Britta has been knitting since she was eight years old, worked in her mother's wool store as a child and became Germany's youngest yarn retailer at the age of 21. Carsten brings the entrepreneurial spirit - a symbiosis that combines tradition and the future.

Her yarns are made exclusively from natural fibers, often organic, some GOTS-certified. They don't produce what sells well, but what feels good. BC Garn understands that real quality takes time, dedication and people who love the craft. Each skein carries the wisdom of two generations - and the certainty that some traditions are too beautiful to ever abandon.
