'crafty type?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'do wrong or evade' is the wordplay.
'do' indicates anagramming the letters (solvers must work out or 'do' the anagram puzzle).
'wrong'+'or'+'evade'='wrongorevade'
'wrongorevade' anagrammed gives 'WOOD-ENGRAVER'.
