The function should return the value '$input * 2'

I don't see how @return is wrong.

I think if you remove the parenthesis around $input * 2 that should work for you.

Thanks for the speedy reply - I found the answer searching around ... @function double($input) { @return $input * 2; }

div { font-size: double(5px); }
