I forgot to add the acid

[blythwhimsies]

I wanted to paint some merino roving and it wasn't until I'd wrapped it all up and popped it in the steamer that I remembered I hadnt added any acid to the dye. However, I had soaked the wool in water with white vinegar in for 3 hours beforehand.
The colours have come out a little muted, which actually I appreciate as I was afraid I had overdone it with the dyes and it would be too vivid.
I was using Eurolana dyes
What are the consequences for colour fastness without the acid?
Is there any way I can 'correct' it now?

Did you get any dye wash out when you rinsed? If not, it's fine. If it is still washing out, put it in a pot with water and vinegar and simmer or steam.

Agree with Ruth, I once did something similar with a vessel I dyed, I hadn't soaked it in acid first, and didn't realise what I had done until I was rinsing it and watched all the dye washing out! A quick drop into a bag with acid solution and back into the steamer for an hour saved what dye was still left in the pod.

You got some lovely colours, Marian, hope you can retain the colour.
