Moms weave their way out of depression

SHANGHAI - Jinxiufang, a shopping street in Shanghai's Pudong District, was recently festooned with colorful new decorations.

Mao Wan and many new moms from her weaving group had spent months knitting cute animals and ornate patterns to decorate the shopping area to mark World Mental Health Day on Oct 10.

Mao, a 30-year-old mother of two, suffered postpartum depression after she had her first child in 2015.
