You can't be part of the EU and pick and choose who you trade with, it's quite complex if you leave the UK you will have to reapply to join the EU and that could take years so you would neither have the single market or a trade deal with the UK to begin with, Spain has already said they would block Scotland as an Indy country joining, it would be even more of a mess than Brexit if that's possible
