$accent: #c99065;

I am completely new to SCSS

Can you offer any advice

The line that solves the sass issue (based on @frobnitzem's solution!) is changing line 13 in all.sass to

$projects: ( {% for project in site.data.settings.projects %} "{{ project.folder }}", {% endfor %} )

I am also new to sass, but it seems as though adding brackets (square or round) stops the converter stops throwing the issue.
