Code returns invalid CSS

So I'm pretty sure the syntax is correct, but it still returns an error? The question is as follows:

Next, use a mixin to give body a linear-gradient background. Make the start color #3d69b5 and the end color #1a335e.

Any advice is much appreciated!

sass/style.scss 
/* Write your SCSS code below. */

// Imports
@import "compass/css3"

// Variables


// Page Styles

body{
@include background(linear-gradient(#3d69b5,#1a335e));
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>My Compass Project</title>
  <link href="stylesheets/style.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
  <div class="main-logo"></div>
</body>
</html>

I think it just needs space between the two values

body{
@include background(linear-gradient(#3d69b5, #1a335e));
}
