Craft class groups crafts by the broad kind of skilled work each one represents, from textile work to woodworking to metalwork. Wikipedia states, "A craft or trade is a pastime or an occupation that requires particular skills and knowledge of skilled work." Grouping by class lets a visitor compare crafts that share a similar kind of hands-on skill.
