Default Dyeing carpet

I'm doing some redecorating as we've been in the same house for 6 years. Got
the office done and it looks good. Now it's time to move to the bedroom.

The carpet in our home is cut pile and is a dusty rose/light purplish color.
There aren't a lot of colours that go well with this carpet, so I'm
considering dyeing the carpet somehow. I'd like to just pull it out and
install hardwood or laminate, but the time nor money are available.

Is there anything I can use to colour the carpet, that isn't too expensive?
I'm considering using a clothing dye inside of a carpet shampooer, but I'm
concerned that I won't get the colour of of the shampooer and then the
colour will come out of the carpet.
