As long as you're in the appropriate speed/rpm range for the gear you end up in, it doesn't matter how you get there. I was pretty nervous about this when learning to drive stick, but really, it's absolutely fine. I skip 4th or 5th gear a lot. I routinely hit 50-55 in 3rd gear whenever I enter any of the country highways around here, and then just go to 6th to cruise.
