We know that JKR draws on a variety of folklores/mythologies for
elements in the Harry Potter series.  

Perhaps this chapter title will turn out to be linked to one of the
many tales involving spinners.  From Greek myth alone, there's Clotho
(one of the Fates), Arachne and Penelope (Odysseus' wife).

There are important spinners in the Finnish Kalevala and other
cultures' stories too.

Just a thought.
