Allergies and hives?

Can seasonal allergies cause hives? The pollen's been insanely high in my area, and I broke out in hives on my chest and arms-which has never happened before. It may be from my fabric softener, but I've never had a skin reaction to anything. Just curious if allergies could cause it. Thanks!
As of right now, I have no food allergies (I am 26). My brother and daughter do though.
Nope, not poison ivy (I'm surprisingly insensitive to it). I have been gardening, but it had been several days since I had when the hives came. I'm hoping it isn't a new food allergy, that would be upsetting.
