I believe its 1/4 stitch. So in 1 Aida square you need to stitch 4 cross stitches. Usually, they are in corners, but in this case, you stitch them as mini cross stitches, horizontally. I hope you understand, or someone might explain it better.

@krakelingetje
My apologies, I had a proper look at their instructions, they dont have this particular one. But youve got it, 4 small cross stitches of two colours in one aida block.

@krakelingetje, Which Heritage design are you interested in?

Im not sure that its 1/4 cross stitches, I think its 1/2 vertical or 1/2 horizontal stitch. It is necessary to look at the original diagram. In your drawing, most likely PM.

@krakelingetje If I understood correctly from my research, petite stitch is a petite point stitch, or a tent stitch, or a gobelin stitch. Its a half of a full cross stitch. Have a look:
