Mythologically, it depends on the myth tradition you choose.

Scientifically, no-one made the sky.

It was formed as the atmosphere was formed and became able to reflect/ scatter/ diffuse light rays from the sun.

In Greek mythology, it was Atlas. He was punished to hold up the sky for being a Titan and opposing the gods. I'm not sure who his Roman and Egyptian equivalents are or if he even has any.
