Simple nose loop bend.
Take a pair of round nose pliers and bend a "U" in the wire. Make it so you have a tag end about 1 1/2 inches long. Now place the wire in a soft jaw vise so you have about 3/4 on an inch of U showing above the vise jaws. Now take the round nose pliers and bend the loop closed. The vise will hold the tag end and main wire and only bend the loop so you have exactly the nose loop you want. Adjust to suit.
