How to convert igraph network plot to ggnet2 in R?

Question

I have created a network plot using igraph In R. However, I feel it might be easier to manipulate legends etc using ggnet2. So, I am trying to convert or achieve a similar plot using igraph... but using ggnet2. But I am unfamiliar with ggnet2 and I'm working my way through the manual but I can't get it to work for my basic example.

Below is a basic example of how I'm creating the network plot using igraph:

library(igraph)
edgeWe <- c(1,2,10,3,4,2,3,4,4,20)
edgeDir <- c(1,2, 1,3, 1,4, 1,5, 2,3, 2,4, 2,5, 3,4, 3,5, 4,5 )
nodeSize <- c(9, 19, 29, 39, 49)

net.xy <- make_graph(edgeDir, 5, directed = F)
V(net.xy)$size <- nodeSize
E(net.xy)$width <- edgeWe

lo <- layout_in_circle(net.xy)
plot(net.xy, lo)

This produces a plot similar to this:

I know there are parameters like node.size in ggnet2... but my main difficulty is even producing a graph similar to this.

Any suggestions as to how I would achieve this?
