My baby turned one this week, and she is slowly becoming smoother to shift from first to second. It's winter here though, so during cold starts I've found that hesitating slightly before shifting down into 2nd seems to help a lot:

1st gear / clutch in / shift half way to 2nd for a half second / shift fully to 2nd / release clutch

As someone mentioned above, using higher revs than normal does help but I don't like doing that while she's warming up.
