advanced mixin arguments

Again I'm stuck on this challenge, please help

Create a mixin called square that takes two arguments - one called "size" that will set the height and the width, and one called "color" that will set the color of a 1px solid border.

style.scss 
/* Write your SCSS code below. */
@mixin  square($size, $color) {
  height: $size;
  width:  $size;
  color:  $color;

}

Reread the challenge. It's asking you to use the second argument, $color, to set the color of the border in the rule. If you adjust your mixin accordingly, you're in good shape!

border: 1px solid $color;
