Import of "bourbon" doesn't work in Jekyll setup

I'm using Jekyll to create a static website and want to use the framework Bourbon to build my CSS from.

I've installed Jekyll and want to install Bourbon by adding it to my Gemfile using gem 'bourbon' and running bundle install.

Now when I add the rule @import 'bourbon'; to my SCSS file and start to run Jekyll by jekyll serve -w it starts, but when I modify my SCSS file the Jekyll watcher throws an error saying:

    Regenerating: 1 files at 2014-07-03 10:00:11   `Conversion error: There was an error converting 'css/main.scss'.`
...error:
    Error: File to import not found or unreadable: bourbon. Load path: /Users/mark/Code/markdejong.com/mistermark.github.com.jekyll/_sass
    Error: Run jekyll build --trace for more information.

What can be the problem here? Shouldn't it be possible to import it like this or doesn't Jekyll support this?

Assuming you have a Gemfile:

source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'jekyll'

gem 'bourbon'
gem 'neat'

Add this line to _config.yml

gems: [bourbon, neat]

Jekyll will require these gems automatically.

Just do for import:

@import 'bourbon';
@import 'neat';

Check Jekyll docs for more information http://jekyllrb.com/docs/plugins/

Did you import Bourbon at the Ruby level, with require 'bourbon?
Or in your Sass configuration?

With Sass, to use Bourbon installed with RubyGems, you have to tell the following command (note the argument -r bourbon):

sass -r bourbon -w css:sass

I do not know Jekyll, but it's perhaps a clue?

Did you do a

bourbon install

In order to create the bourbon folder ?

Bourbon's doc also says that for non rail app the import rule is :

@import 'bourbon/bourbon';
