Designer Profile
Dedri Uys is the designer behind Lookatwhatimade, a crochet website known for its detailed step-by-step tutorials and inspiring patterns. What began as a general craft and baking blog has become a dedicated crochet space filled with colorful projects and supportive resources.
Dedri learned to crochet as a child and rediscovered it as a form of therapy—something that’s helped her manage her health and bring joy to others. She’s passionate about helping makers feel proud of what they create, no matter their skill level.
Her most well-known project is Sophie’s Universe, a free crochet-along that’s been embraced by crocheters around the world. She’s also the author of several books, including Amamani Puzzle Animals, Crochet Therapy, and Bold Baby Crochet.
Originally from South Africa, Dedri now lives in the UK with her husband and three sons. She works part-time as a radiotherapist and spends every free moment designing and sharing her love for crochet.
