    Penelope, wife of Odyssey, spinning a shroud for Laertes as an excuse to keep her suitors at bay. She used to make it by day and at night she used to unwind it herself.

    Its Penelope, the wife of Odysseus/Ulysses who is associated with loyalty coz she kept suitors at bay while her husband was away. She did so by spinning a web during daytime & unraveling it at night. This is also the origin of the phrase "Penelope's web" in English language.
