Narrative:

We took off out of iad (11 degrees flaps). After takeoff we did our after takeoff checklist and flaps (11 degrees) did not come up. We did not exceed limitations. The captain caught the selected (0 degrees) and indicating (11 degrees) difference and cycled the handle and the flaps came up without any further problem. Flaps checked out normal.
