 The knot used at the intersection of the each row and column is a Sheet Bend (shown below).

Each row is secured at the "A" Frame legs and each column is secured at the Cross Brace using a Clove Hitch at these locations.

It is all done with one continuous rope.  (The photos show two different color ropes to highlight the knot tying path).

Start at one end of the Cross Brace and tie clove hitches along the length of the cross brace.  When you reach the other end tie a clove hitch around the A frame leg. 

Work your way back to the starting side tying Sheet Bends to the slack between each clove hitchs on the Cross Brace.

And repeat... ending each row with a clove hitch around an A frame leg

I am impressed!  A picture of step 13.5, showing a couple of more rows would make thing a lot more clear to me.

That knot is a sheet bend?  It looks like a bowline (looking at the bowline from the back).  They appear pretty similar.
