Quick Take
Choosing between these needlecraft yarn lots comes down to fiber, color consistency, and how many skeins you need. One lot combines two wool brands, one is an all-green Persian yarn set, one is a handspun purple blend, and one is a small nylon bundle. All four are new skeins, yet they range from a compact practice set to a larger same-color wool supply. The decision starts with whether your project calls for a single color, a multi-color mix, or a specialty blend.
Listed Price Comparison
| Product | Listed price | Relative listed price | What the lot includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paragon/Elsa Williams Needlepoint Wool Pull (7 skeins) | USD 17.99 | Six Paragon wool skeins and one Elsa Williams wool skein | |
| Elsa Williams Persian Yarn, Green (lot of 8) | USD 19.99 | Eight 100% wool green skeins, 40 yards each | |
| Purple Tibet Wool-Silk-Cotton (2 skeins) | USD 19.00 | One 100g wool and silk skein and one 50g cotton and silk skein | |
| Darice Nylon Plus Needlecraft Yarn (mixed lot of 3) | USD 5.00 | Three 100% nylon skeins, 20 yards each |
The Darice mixed lot carries the lowest listed price, while the Elsa Williams green lot has the highest listed price. The other two lots sit between those two points.
Decision Matrix
- If you want a low-cost nylon bundle for practice or small projects, choose the Darice Nylon Plus mixed lot.
- If you want a matched green wool supply for tapestry or needlepoint, choose the Elsa Williams green Persian lot.
- If you want a mixed-brand wool needlepoint set, choose the Paragon/Elsa Williams needlepoint lot.
- If you want a compact handspun blend for accessories, choose the purple Tibet blend.
Product Notes
Yarn Needlecraft Needlepoint Wool Pull Skein Paragon Elsa Williams 7 Skeins
If your goal is a ready wool blend for needlepoint, this $17.99 lot stacks six Paragon 100% wool skeins in Color 611 alongside one Elsa Williams 100% wool skein in Color 602. The seven-skein count gives you more pieces to work with than the handspun set, and the two-brand mix lets you compare slightly different wool yarns in one purchase. The tradeoff is that the colors are not unified: you get two colorways, so this is a mix rather than a matched set. It is also not the green single-color option if your pattern needs a consistent hue across many stitches.
Elsa Williams Persian Yarn 100% Wool Skein Needle Craft Greens 40 Yds Each Lot 8
The eight-skein Elsa Williams lot is the one to consider when you want a same-color wool supply. All eight green skeins are 100% wool and each holds 40 yards, which adds up to a substantial amount of green yarn for tapestry or needlepoint projects. At USD 19.99, it carries the highest listed price in this group, but the per-skein listed price works out to about USD 2.50, slightly below the Paragon/Elsa Williams lot. The limitation is the palette: if you need more than green, this lot will not provide that variety. The vintage style, however, is a nice match for traditional needlecraft.
Yarn 2 Skeins Purple Tibet Wool Silk Cotton 150 g Yarn Needlecraft
This pair is the specialty pick for a compact accessory project. The set includes a 100g purple Tibet wool and silk skein made in Nepal and a 50g Wach'i pima cotton and silk skein, so you are getting two different handspun fibers for one $19.00 listed price. The purple color is consistent, and it is suited to scarves, hats, bags. The main limitation is the per-skein listed price: about $9.50 per skein is much higher than the per-skein cost of the multi-skein wool or nylon lots. Also, one skein's fiber blend differs from the other, so expect a different feel between them.
Mixed Lot 3 Skeins DARICE NYLON PLUS 100% Nylon NEEDLECRAFT YARN 20yds ea
At USD 5.00, this is the lowest listed price among the four lots, making it a clear pick if you want a low-cost bundle for practice or small needlecraft. The mixed lot contains three skeins of 100% nylon yarn, each 20 yards, for 60 yards of total yarn. It is also mixed in color, so you get a varied set rather than a single-color supply. The tradeoff is that 100% nylon has a different fiber feel from the wool yarns in the other lots, and the 60-yard total is much shorter than the larger wool lots. For a compact project or a try-it-out skein set, it works.
Final Recommendation by Use Case
Pick the Darice Nylon Plus mixed lot when a low listed price and small nylon skeins matter most. Pick the Elsa Williams green Persian lot when you want a same-color wool stash. Pick the Paragon/Elsa Williams needlepoint lot when you want a wool set with two brand lines. Pick the purple Tibet blend when you want a specialty silk and wool blend for a scarf, bag, or hat.
