When I run sass --watch app.sass:app.css terminal shows that changes have been detected to sass but won't compile to css. I am using Bourbon so all my .scss and .sass files are imported via mixins.

ex.

 >>> Sass is watching for changes. Press Ctrl-C to stop.
 >>> Change detected to: css/2-modules/top-nav.scss

Make sure the file you are saving with an _filename.scss has been properly imported into the mainfile.scss. if you have not imported the _filename.scss it will detect a change but not compile.
