For a single stitch? Do the stitch as normal. After crossing the stitch over, come from the back to the front, lower left hand side of the x.Then go left to right under the x, at the front and go back down to the back in the upper right hand corner. You can repeat the process by coming down once again at the back up in the lower right hand corner and then right to left once more and down this time in the upper left hand corner. Pull the stitches tight to keep them even with the rest of your stitches. After this you can then rap the end of the thread around the poll at the back and leave a slight "tail" when cutting off. That will prevent the floss from coming to the front and keep it at the back. Im not sure if this is the only way to do this stitch but it works for me and does look good for a single stitch.
