I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'handmade' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'craft shows preoccupation with detail' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'craft' could be 'art' (both can mean cunning or trickery) and 'art' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

(Another definition for artisanal that I've seen is " like a skilled worker".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
