Athena is goddess of weaving, but Arachne in Greek mythology was a mortal weaver who got so good she challenged Athena, with the usual repercussions.
Bobbin lace is a form of weaving without a fixed warp, so lacemakers in modern times have adopted Arachne (we're mortals), hence the name of our lace list.
