The Crafty Fox is right up there with on the list of craft events that go straight into the diary. Honestly, the press release could tell me that it was going to be hosted in Mordor and free toads would be given to all attendees, and we’d still go. We know the Crafty Fox for bringing all the seriously good London craft folk together: the new and the old(er). Yes, there is a helluva lot of crafty talent in London but in the last twelve months it feels like a lot of the same stuff’s been going round and round. This year, Crafty Fox introduce a fresh batch to the fold. Bettered by some fab guest curators – Sian Meades (Domestic Sluttery) and Ellie Tennant  (Design Journalist) the weekend will see 60% new stalls. You should already be on your feet. A few more keywords? Cakes, vintage clothing, screen prints, wooden paraphernalia, angry bears, star wars jokes, patterns, old-London maps, stuffed nonsense. And if that’s all looking a bit twee, try this. / Claire Tayler
