Unless more light has become available to the plant, which could cause scorching, then I would suspect one of two things:
Insects can be an issue. This is especially problematic with really small insects, like spider mites. There are many insects that could be the issue.
Another issue could be fungal issues. You may notice other plants around the area suffering as well, but ivy tends to be, somewhat, disease resistant.
