The details of the story about Arachne that really proves that it is Arachne's pride that caused her downfall is when she refused to recognize and acknowledge that there is someone better than her in spinning and that is the Goddess of crafts and wisdom Athena. Her pride for herself and being boastful of her talent is the reason why she was cursed into a spider because she did not just refuse to acknowledge Athena but she even challenged her to a fight to know who is better between the two of them. She believed so much in herself and caused her to learn her lesson the hardest way.
