PRECIOUS KNITS – LOOK BOOK REGINA MOESSMER & BC GARN
EDITORIAL It‘s about those short moments of happiness when we think of something that gives us joy: Having discovered this beautiful new wool. The decision for the perfect color. The smell of little sheep. Knitting the first rows. Testing whether the wool is genuinely soft on your cheek. Knitting until late … The passion for wool and design allows us to make new plans daily. It offers lifeblood, love, friends, all wrapped in one. It makes us exceedingly happy, it is real! We are free to hold our dream in our hands. With this booklet we want to add another point to the list of these moments. A little thing which is not quite that little: The right design. With numerous ideas around BC Garn and the associated instructions, the ecologically responsible production of the yarns and the carefully picked selection of colors are the heart of this booklet. With each page we want you to feel a little bit of this joy, which has accompanied us so intensively during the creation process. We sincerely thank all our loved ones and supporters, and of course you – our readers. REGINA MOESSMER & BRITTA KREMKE

ABOUT THE DESIGNER REGINA MOESSMER As an independent knitwear designer, I strive to create a collection of stylish, modern and comfortable knitwear for today’s women of all ages. Timeless knitwear, designed in my favourite top-down construction, allows me to create as I go, while perfecting the fit at the same time. My pieces look elegantly minimalistic, yet reveal clever details while they are knitted and worn. My personal style is influenced by my background as an interior designer, my passion for modern art, the bustling city of Munich, with its exciting fashion vibe, and the south of Bavaria, with its inspiring landscape and soothing tranquillity. For me BC Garn combines a top quality yarn product with an extremely cool and modern Scandinavian design aesthetic and colors, that fit my personal taste and designs perfectly. My personal favourite is SEMILLA CABLÉ because of its wonderful softness of course, but also because the chain-like structure gives each garment and accessory a glorious lightweight and airy quality. My favourite pattern must be the JOEL cardigan made with BC Garn BABY ALPACA! The design embraces the yarn perfectly, through cosiness, structure, stitch definition and clean modern design.

ABOUT THE YARNS BC Garn is a yarn brand that was founded some 20 years ago in Denmark by Bo Carstensen, the son of a weaver and a rug wool trader. His love for natural fibres and a wide color range is reflected in the range of yarns. Today the brand is owned by Britta and Carsten Kremke, who continue the yarn range in the tradition of the original founder, focussing on high quality organic yarns.
HAMELTON TWEED 1 A soft, slightly shiny tweed wool with a little bit of Viscose to add some drapiness, spun in Italy.
BABY ALPACA A very light, super soft pure Alpaca yarn with an incredible long yardage from South America.
LOCH LOMOND A rustic, yet soft, voluminous GOTS certified organic Tweed Wool sourced in South America.
SEMILLA CABLÉ A cable spun pure organic wool for the certain touch of springiness, spun in Italy.
SEMILLA GROSSO A tightly spun pure organic wool, nice and thick for fast results, spun in Italy.
SARAH TWEED A blend of Silk and Wool that combines the best of both worlds: the shine of the silk and the woolly touch of pure wool. The Tweed naps add to the interesting look of this Italian spun yarn.
SEMILLA MELANGE A rustique, yet soft, voluminous GOTS certified organic pure wool sourced in South America.
SOFT SILK A pure Bourette Silk with the typical look and feel of this kind of silk: it is not shiny like mulberry silk, but feels kind of woolly with great climate properties.
BIO BALANCE An all-year yarn spun from GOTS certified organic wool with cotton, soft but not hairy, ideal for sensitive skins.
