You don't really want to pinch them closed. It's more of a twisting motion. This video shows how to open a (jump) ring; close it in reverse of the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlL_v622c8o
TRL (theringlord.com) is the best place to get rings in bulk with the best prices. If you're doing a big project, get all of your rings together since, due to the nature of the business of sourcing wire, colors from different batches tend to differ slightly.
I prefer using two different pairs of pliers. I use smooth-jaw, bent-nose (akin to this) in one hand and smooth-jaw, needle-nose (akin to this) in the other. These two types combine to give me many different ways to hold the rings, maneuver them into place, and twist them closed.
The ability to consistently get all of your closures flush (aligning the two "ends" of the ring) is paramount to the aesthetics, function, and longevity of your finished pieces.

Also, you may want to check out www.mailleartisans.org, particularly the articles section since there are many weave tutorials as well as construction tutorials for shirts and whatnot. It will also be worthwhile to join the forums since many of the active users there are not active here. Oh, TRL also has a forum.
