Depends on whether you use natural or acid dyes. I will assume, since you went to all the work, that you used natural dye of some sort. Natural dyes usually need be mordanted; alum is the safest and most common. Dissolve some alum in warm water, and presoak your wool article, then place it in the dye bath. There should be enough dyebath to cover the article. Bring it to about 180 degrees and hold it there for a half hour to an hour and it should give you a good color (depending on how much dye material you have). Turn off the heat and let the whole thing cool a bit. When it's cool, rinse the wool, gently, in water about the same temperature.
If you used acid dye, presoaking in vinegar works about the same way.
