Tried to dye these capris black, they ended up dark brown. Can I fix it?

I’m hoping I can get some help cause I feel bad about ruining these capris. They were originally a light tan/khaki color, I used a whole pack of rit powder dye because I wanted to make sure they came out dark black, but instead they came out dark brown with a sort of purple undertone (you can see in the photos with flash). The material is 100% cotton. I’m wondering if there’s any way to re-dye these to be completely black? I’d also like the stitching to be black but that’s not a huge priority, as long as the actual fabric could be turned black. Thanks!
