Respective eyes are aligned transversely of the rows with the holders and filaments pass in a transverse direction from the bobbins to and through the respective eyes. A respective longitudinally extending and nonstraight guide spaced transversely in the direction from the bobbins between the bobbins and the eyes extends parallel to the rows and are each formed level with each holder of the respective rows with an arcuate section directed toward the holders of the respective rows and alignable in a first position in the transverse direction with the gaps between the bobbins.
