The Story of Athene and Arachne (How the Spider Was Created‪)‬

Legend

I read this tale in school I really enjoyed it. It's about a great weaver girl who thinks she is the best then a old lady comes in and challenges her to a weaving contest the old lady make one of the people of Athens the Weaver Girl makes one mocking the Greek Gods the old lady revels that she is Athene the goddess of war (I think) She turns the weaver girl into a small black ball with her little fingers poking out and this is how the spider is created.
