The invention provides a creel for feeding slivers (21) of fibers to a processing machine (10), comprising a bank of feed stations (13c) to (13i) and two reserve feed stations (13a) (13b). Upon disruption at any feed station in the bank, a reserve feed station comes into operation and is moved into the bank of feed stations, while the station where the feed was interrupted is moved to a reserve feed station position. Movement of the stations is effected by moving a carriage at a station, which includes feed rollers, sensors etc. to the required positions. The carriages are moved along a first rail in an upstream position and a second rail in a downstream position and are transverable between these rails.
