Choosing between two new wool needlecraft yarn lots comes down to one practical question: do you want color variety or color consistency? The two lots carry listed prices of USD 17.99 and USD 39.99, a USD 22.00 spread, and both are presented as new wool yarn. The Paragon and Elsa Williams pull-skein bundle pairs two different wool colors in one set. The Vintage Elsa Williams N421 Green lot centers on a matched green colorway.
Quick verdict
If your project can use two distinct colors, start with the Paragon and Elsa Williams bundle. It gives you the Paragon wool in Color 611 along with an Elsa Williams wool in Color 602. If you need every strand to read as the same green, choose the Vintage Elsa Williams N421 Green lot instead, because it is built around a matched green set. Neither lot is a wrong buy; they just solve different color problems.
Comparison table
| Product | Listed price | Price bar | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paragon + Elsa Williams 7-skein pull lot | USD 17.99 | Paragon 100% wool Color 611 skeins plus one Elsa Williams Color 602 40-yard skein; new | |
| Vintage Elsa Williams N421 Green tapestry wool lot | USD 39.99 | Unused 40-yard 100% wool skeins in matched N421 Green; new |
Where each one stands out
The Paragon + Elsa Williams bundle is the mixed-color option: the Paragon pieces are Color 611 and the Elsa Williams piece is Color 602, so you get two shades without buying two separate sets. The Vintage Elsa Williams lot is the uniform-color option: every skein is N421 Green, with a matched dye lot, moth-resistant and colorfast wool, original paper labels, and a made-in-U.S.A. origin. That makes it the stronger fit for a project where color accuracy matters more than variety.

You get a mix of two wool lines here: Paragon wool Color 611 and an Elsa Williams wool Color 602 piece. Because the set is said to come from a non-smoking, no-pets home, it is a clean starting point for a needlepoint project. The trade-off is the color story: the Paragon pieces share Color 611 while the Elsa Williams piece is Color 602, so you are working with two shades rather than one uniform shade. If your design needs that kind of pulled-together palette, this bundle gives you an all-wool set.

This set is the coordinated choice. Every skein is Elsa Williams Needlecraft Creations tapestry wool in N421 Green, and each is listed at 40 yards. The set also carries a matched dye lot, moth-resistant and colorfast properties, original paper labels, and a made-in-U.S.A. origin. The unused status makes the lot ready to drop into a project without sorting. That consistency is valuable when every stitch needs to look like the same green. The limitation is the single-color commitment: you are paying for a matched green palette, not a multicolor assortment. If green is exactly what your pattern calls for, this lot gives you a ready-to-use palette.
Final choice by use case
Choose the Paragon + Elsa Williams pull-skein bundle when you want two colors in one all-wool set. Choose the Vintage Elsa Williams N421 Green lot when you want a matched green palette with original labels. Both are wool needlecraft yarn lots, so the real fork in the road is whether one uniform green tone or multiple shades fits your pattern.
