I am facing css font-weight issue. I have a site where I want to reduce the font-weight but it seems fixed even the lightest weight i.e. 100 looks like this.

but I want it to look like this Font I am using is Merriweather-Sans

My css file 1 which contains the css related to the body and headings:

body {
  font-size: $font-size-base;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-base);
  color: $color-black;
}

h1 {
  font-size: $font-size-h1;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-h1);
  margin-bottom: $spacer;
  font-weight: 100;
  color: $color-slate;
}

h2 {
  font-size: $font-size-h2;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-h2);
  font-weight: $font-weight-light;
  color: $color-crimson;
  margin-bottom: $spacer;
  color: $color-slate;
  text-transform: capitalize;
}

h3 {
  font-size: $font-size-h3;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-h3);
  font-weight: $font-weight-normal;
  margin-bottom: $spacer;
  color: $color-slate;
}

h4 {
  font-size: $font-size-h4;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-h4);
  margin-bottom: $spacer;
}

p {
  font-size: $font-size-base;
  line-height: line-height($font-size-base);
  margin-bottom: $spacer;
  color: $color-slate;
}

My css file 2 which contains the variables declared in css above:

/* === Typography === */
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Merriweather Sans');

$font-family-base: 'Merriweather Sans', sans-serif;

$font-size-base: 1rem;
$font-size-h1: $font-size-base * 3;
$font-size-h2: $font-size-base * 2;
$font-size-h3: $font-size-base * 1.75;
$font-size-h4: $font-size-base * 1.25;
$font-size-lead: $font-size-base * 1.25;
$font-size-small: $font-size-base * 0.875;

$font-weight-light: 200;
$font-weight-normal: 400;
$font-weight-bold: 700;

/* === Line height === */

$line-height-list: 1.5rem;
