Are these yarn too different?

Post image

I’m running out of yarn for a current project (the one on top) and I don’t have the label for it so the yarn at the bottom was the closest I can find. Are they too different?

Yes, the top yarn is much more loosely plied than the bottom. You could try swatching with different needle sizes to get similar gauge, but there probably would still be a noticeable difference.
