knitting in circles

Making progress.  I have now mastered the art of knitting with four needles in a circle, as testified to by a centimetre of ribbing.

I'm still using my scrap wool.  I want to see if I can follow the instructions for turning a heel before I go into my nicer wool.

One problem.  The pattern tells me to use 44 [52,56,64,68] stitches for the leg, but gives no clue as to what size of actual leg these are likely to fit.  It gives details for length of foot and length of leg, but no clues as to circumference of leg.

does anyone have suggestions for what circumference of leg sock patterns typically cater for.
