Look at the decorative cover that rests against the door. There should be a slot on the underside for a flathead screwdriver or something similar. Pop it in there and you can pop the plate off which should reveal the screws used to attach the 2 sections of doorknob (inside & outside) together. Tighten those screws and replace the cover.
