I played through episode one and was able to craft a stone sword, slime block, bow and arrows. When re-playing the episode I also found that I could craft a lever using cobblestone and a stick.
What can you craft in the game?

What can you craft in the game?
The following items on the Episodes are crafted:
Lever [Optional]
Stone Sword
Slime block
Bow and arrow, or fishing rod.
Sticky Piston
Redstone Block
Lever
Any Diamond Tool
Appearently, you can't craft other stuff since the fact that:
You lack the materials for other stuff.
The stuff not important for the game won't be crafted, even though the ingredients and the way of putting on the crafting table is correct.
In Episode 1, where you have to craft a stone sword, if you choose to make a lever, Petra will say it isn' useful for battle and you're back in the crafting table with more sticks and cobblestone. You'll get a achievement for this. In the part where a dispenser trap is activated, you get the choice of a bow and arrow, or the fishing rod. Nothing really matters about the way you craft stuff. By the way I chose the bow and arrow since I didn't know you can also craft the fishing rod. In Episode 2 If you choosed to go get Ellegard you need to find a repeater. Either you craft one or steal it from a disco guy by talking to him and the school boy. In Episode the Formidi-Bomb isn't really possible to craft in the normal Minecraft game, so you won't know you make it. But as Soren told Jesse:
"Remember, Super TNT in the middle, gunpower around it!"
It's possible to craft the Formidi-Bomb in Minecraft Story Mode. With the execption of the other episodes [I didn't metion about them because they aren't released], those are the only things you can craft in Minecraft Story Mode. Good luck saving the world from destruction!
In Episode 1, there are three crafting puzzles. The materials you get are deliberately limited so there aren't many options.
In the first puzzle, you are supposed to make a sword. As you said, you can also make a lever. Petra will comment on how a lever won't be much good for defending yourself and let you take the materials for another sword. You will receive an achievement for this.
The second puzzle only allows you to make a slime block. You don't have enough string to make a lead so the slime block is your only option.
The third puzzle has two solutions. The bow and arrow is the obvious solution. You can also make a fishing rod, which will still solve the puzzle.
