There aren't really any other instructions included on the PDF. I think it's supposed to be a half stitch of one color and then a half stitch of the other maybe?

This looks like you might want a three-quarter stitch. If you're not familiar, quarter stitching is when you stitch from a corner of the cross and then through the center of the fabric.

I think two 3/4 stitches back-to-back in the same square.
