craftophile 

People who love craft are called Craftophiles. “Craftophile” means someone who loves crafts or crafting, such as knitting, sewing, painting, etc. The word is composed of two parts: “craft” and “phile”. The first part is obvious, but the second part comes from the Greek word “philos”, which means “loving” or “fond of”. So, a craftophile is someone who is fond of crafts or loves doing them.
