it's saying that my portfolio list item should link to index.html but i can't get it to work

I'm not sure why it's not working

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
         <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
           <nav>
               <ul>
               <li> <a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
               <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
               <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
                </ul>
           </nav>
      </a>

Your nav element and nested ul should go after the a tag in the header. As follows :)

    <header>
        <a href="index.html">
            <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
            <h2>Designer</h2>
        </a>
        <nav>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
                <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
                <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
             </ul>
        </nav>
    </header>
