angoraphobia - n. fear of soft, fuzzy sweaters (agoraphobic. - adj.)

Usage examples:

Sheila, who had severe but as yet undiagnosed angoraphobia, shrieked in
terror upon opening a Christmas present from her grandmother. Harold, a
recently recovered agoraphobic (Harold had sought treatment when, as a
teenager in the 50s, he found himself unable to be around teenaged girls
and thus unable to go out on dates) having gone through a lengthy course
of aversion therapy, leapt into the fray, grabbed the accursed soft,
fuzzy sweater, and flung it into the fireplace.
