+The font is referenced in the **googlefontdirectory-hg** monorepo (the git mirror of the original Google Code Mercurial repository that hosted Google Fonts from 2010–2013). However, the `src/` directory contains only a TTX-processed TTF and metadata comments — not original design sources. The original .vfb design files were never published.

### Git History in google/fonts
| 64d3e3a | earlier | (batch) | Remove duplicate files |
| 90abd17 | 2015-03-07 | Dave Crossland | Initial commit |
-PR #770 (merged 2017-08-07 by Marc Foley) renamed the font file from CraftyGirls.ttf to CraftyGirls-Regular.ttf and updated metadata. The PR body was empty.

-### Cached Mirror: librefonts/craftygirls
-
-- **Path**: upstream_repos/fontc_crater_cache/librefonts/craftygirls
-- **URL**: https://github.com/librefonts/craftygirls
-- **Content**: TTX dumps of the binary font, plus src/ directory with more TTX files and metadata
-- **Source type**: TTX only (decompiled from binary, not original design sources)
-- **Single commit** by hash3g (undated): "update .travis.yml"
-- **Versions file**: Lists Version 1.000
-
-The librefonts mirror is an automated TTX dump. The src/ directory contains CraftyGirls-TTX.ttf.*.ttx files (decompiled table dumps). These are NOT original design sources and cannot be used to rebuild the font with gftools-builder.
-
-### Search for Upstream Repository
-
-- **No googlefonts/craftygirls** or **googlefonts/crafty-girls** repository exists
-- **fontdiner/fonts** exists on GitHub but is empty (only LICENSE and README.md)
-- **No other upstream repository** was found for this font
-- Font Diner / Tart Workshop is a commercial foundry; the font was contributed under Apache 2.0 but the original design sources (.vfb or similar) were likely never published
-
-### Config.yaml Assessment
-
-No config.yaml exists anywhere. The only available source format is TTX (decompiled binary tables), which is not compatible with gftools-builder. The original design sources (likely FontLab .vfb format given the era and foundry) were never published.
-
-## Conclusion
-
-Crafty Girls has no proper upstream repository. The librefonts/craftygirls mirror contains only TTX dumps and should not be used as a repository_url. The font was produced by Font Diner and delivered as a compiled binary to Google Fonts. No original design sources or build configuration exist.
