Where I dress stick distaffs (plural of distaff) with carded wool fibre for spinning into yarn. I use four different methods for drum carded batts, hand carded rolags, and commercially prepared roving.
A distaff is a device to hold fibre to facilitate drafting and spinning. Distaves (plural of distaff) can be of various construction, but it is the purpose that counts. It could be a nail or a hook on the wall, a broom, a stick, or a rake. Often the distaff is purpose-built and highly decorative.
