Crafty plotting (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scheming

I believe this is a double definition.

'crafty' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'plotting' is the second definition.
(scheming is a kind of plotting)

(Other definitions for scheming that I've seen before include "Duplicitous" , "Plotting secretly" , "cunning" , "far from 10 [WIDE EYED]" , "Planning secretly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
