Barbara, I had great success dyeing a dark brown fleece a couple of years
ago.  Used a strong concentration of teal blue, with very nice results
IMHO.  The final color is more of a dark slate blue, but completely
satisfactory and definitely no longer brown at all!  I would suggest you
make an allowance for the brown color with any shade of red you use; you
might get more of a brick red from a scarlet, and so forth.........

Good luck!  and let us know what you decide to try.
