Also while I'm not all that interested in replicating cross stitch designs... This particular cross stitch in the Portuguese booklet is interesting. It isn't standard crosses as far as I can tell, more of a plait/braid. Some sort of long-armed cross stitch? Maybe Greek stitch?

Greek stitch seems pretty close? I quite like the braided look~
A patch of cross stitches from a Portuguese sampler; single crosses are a standard cross, but lines of crosses have that braided look.
A line of overlapping cross stitches that looks like a braid, embroidered on a small scrap of aida for testing stitches.
