Both are wonderful weavers, Athena is a immortal and ageless goddess and Arachne is a proud and stubborn mortal.
Arachne was a mortal woman and talented weaver who challenged the godess Athena, and was transformed into a spider.
Arachne creates a problem for herself by boasting about her weaving skills and challenging the goddess Athena to a contest. This arrogance angers Athena, who is not only the goddess of wisdom but also the patron of artisans, particularly weavers. When Arachne wins the contest, Athena retaliates by destroying her work and, in some versions, transforming Arachne into a spider, condemning her to weave for eternity. Thus, her pride and disrespect for the divine lead to her downfall.
She was a young woman who was transformed into a spider by Athena for challenging her to a weaving contest.
Her skill was to be able to weave better than the goddess Athena herself. That's why Athena got angry and turned her into a spider (Arachne - Arachnid, get it?). She has also been credited with first using linen and inventing the spindle (or her descendants, did depending on the myth source).
