For take off's regardless of x-wind component (below the aircraft x-wind limitation) I roll the control column into wind as necessary and use the rudder to keep it on the centre line. Once airborne centre the rudder and use ailerons only. ie cross controlling on the take off roll until Vr.

Try and get hold of a Boeing FCTM. It gives a detailes explanation of the "Boeing" method for correct X-Wind Take Off and Landing technique.

Hope this helps.
