Most of the parables are in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This is because the authors of these gospels copied a good deal of sayings material attributed to Jesus from the hypothetical 'Q' document. However, Q provided no context for those sayings, so the authors of Matthew and Luke had to create their own context and place the sayings at convenient places within their gospels. It was easier in some cases just to have Jesus talking to the disciples and progressing from one parable to the next, without any apparent logic or reason.
