Virtual yarn stash / wish list yarn

This is the virtual stash of yarn I don't have, most of it I'm unlikely to get, but it's nice to look at and I wanted to keep track of it somewhere. I don't even know what I'd use it for, but at least this way it doesn't take up closet space. The one yarn on the list I'd love to have is Opal Bumblebee.

Wool blends

Opal Bumblebee sock yarn (no longer available, except at extortionate prices on eBay)
Peace Fleece DK mohair/wool blend in Mir-Atlantis Periwinkle
Peace Fleece worsted weight mohair/wool blend in in Sakhalin Salmon
Rowan Cork chunky yarn, 95% Extra Fine Merino 5% Nylon, in Delight (orange), Plush (burgandy), or Sour (lime) ($10.95/50g, 120 yds)

Other fibres
