I'm stuck on question 4. I switched the variables with their associated arguments, but I'm still getting the "Bummer!" message. I don't see the error in my code in my "@mixin box."

Treehouse Guest TeacherThe wording is a little confusing in the quiz, but I believe up to the point of task #4 your code should look like this:
@mixin square($size,$color: black) {
height: $size;
width: $size;
border: 1px solid $color;
}
.box {
@include square($color:red, $size:10px);
}
You don't need that selector, ".square", or that mixin, "box".
