Our pick for levelling: Skinning and Leatherworking (a fan-site view based on the beta crafted gear below). Level 60 crafting picks: Not yet published, updated at launch.

Crafted gear

Wowhead says to take Skinning early; new Leatherworking rares like Stalker's Leather Belt and Dusky Leather Armor are often bind-on-pickup.

Camping buffs that fit

Each profession places a camp feature (skill 20 for tier 1). Anyone sitting nearby gets the buff, and all features share a 1-hour cooldown.

Profession Camp buff
Skinning Camp Chair: +2% crit (not with Moonkin Aura)
Mining Lodestone: melee Attack Power (not with Blessing of Might)
Fishing Fish Bowl: +8% stats (not with Blessing of Kings)
Blacksmithing Sharpening Wheel: Strength (not with Strength of Earth Totem)
Leatherworking Camp Tent: rested XP up to 5% of a level
