Link for Chang-o/Chang-e: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chang%27e

I don't think the Wiki article mentions a dress, and I don't remember it (mostly I remember the elixir), but there are probably a billion variations.

There's also the weaver girl/princess for Tanabata/Qixi, and the girl who turns into a silkworm because of a horse skin (I think) in Chinese mythology. The latter isn't spinning/weaving per se, but it's about the beginning of the silk industry in China.
