has gloss | (noun) the staff on which wool or flax is wound before spinning distaff |
has gloss | eng: As a noun, a distaff (also called a rock ) is a tool used in spinning. It is designed to hold the unspun fibers, keeping them untangled and thus easing the spinning process. It is most commonly used to hold flax, and sometimes wool, but can be used for any type of fiber. Fiber is wrapped around the distaff, and tied in place with a piece of ribbon or string. The word comes from dis in Low German, meaning a bunch of flax, connected with staff. As an adjective the term distaff is used to describe the female side of a family. |

has gloss | heb: כישור (או גלגל טווייה) הוא מכשיר ששימש לטווייה בתקופת ימי הביניים, ביחד עם הפלך. טוויית הצמר, שהייתה אחת מהמלאכות העיקריות שניצבו בפני הנשים בתקופה זו, נעשתה על ידי סיבוב גלגל הכישור (שנקרא באנגלית spinning wheel על שמו) ופיתול סיבי הצמר סביבו, דבר שגרם להם להתלפף לכדי חוט אחיד. מיומנות זו הייתה מיומנות נדרשת ביותר מנשות התקופה, ולכן כל ילדה בתקופה זו למדה להשתמש בכישור, ונדרשה לעשות זאת על מנת לעזור בנטל הכנת הבגדים לבני הבית. |
