This online video tutorial explains how to embroider the Montenegrin stitch. To accomplish this, you first need to bring the needle up from the back (wrong side) of the fabric and make a diagonal stitch from right to left.
After that, bring the needle back to the front of the fabric slightly to the left of the first hole, and make a stitch that ends directly above the starting point of the cross.
Next, bring the needle up to the front at the starting point of the second stitch and make a vertical stitch that ends at the same level as the second stitch. All subsequent crosses are made in the exact same way.
